The Martins Ferry Police Department is mourning a loss after receiving the news that retired K-9 Ecko died Sunday.
Ecko was 11. Officer John Holmes, Ecko’s owner and former handler, said Ecko passed away peacefully in his arms after a tough battle with cancer. The canine was diagnosed with cancer in late December.
Holmes said Ecko was a great work partner as well as a member of his family.
“He was just the best dog you could ask for,” Holmes said. “He was great at work and he was great at home, he was great with kids. It’s like he had a switch and knew when to shut off the aggressive side. There will never be another dog like him.”
