K9 Kato was so special. What a gentle soul, and the perfect Ambassador for the Center. He was there since K9 Dakota… many years of love. Wishing strength to my friends at the Center, and grateful appreciation to K9 Kato for his amazing service. 💔💙

It is our policy not to post EOW K9s here at the Center. But today, we make an exception for a hero who was never just part of our story — he helped shape it.

For the last seven years, K9 Kato served as our ambassador. He carried himself with quiet strength, courage, loyalty, and grace. He represented everything this Center stands for, and everything we fight for every day. All of the heroes in our care are special, and each one leaves a piece of themselves with us. But Kato left something even deeper. He left his pawprints on our hearts.

Today, the State and the country mourn the loss of a remarkable K9 who fought until the very end with all the heart he had. Kato gave so much in his lifetime — through his service, his presence, his resilience, and the comfort he brought simply by being near. He reminded us that these heroes are more than working dogs. They are partners, protectors, family, and souls who change the lives of everyone blessed to know them.

We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to K9 Sergeant David Aguiar for providing K9 Kato with his final ride. That final act of honor, dignity, and respect meant more than words can ever fully express.

Thank you, K9 Kato, for the love you gave, the lives you touched, and the strength you showed us every single day. Thank you for making this world better, gentler, and brighter just by being in it.

Your star is free now to watch over us from above.

Rest easy, Your mission here is complete.

We will take it from here.

Busy times here on the Cape - but I must mention the absolutely fantastic news of Dakotas Law advancing at the State House from the joint committee on Homeland Security and Public Safety - now onto the Ways and Means Committee. Full speed ahead to get Dakotas Law passed! Please let your State Rep and State Senator know you support this bill, which would provide much needed care for the retired K9 Heroes of Massachusetts.

Very blessed to be able to contribute to such an amazing cause; the K9 PTSD Research Center. They provide a home for retired military and police K9s with canine PTSD, who would otherwise be euthanized. 100 percent of all donations go directly to the K9s in need.

💙🐾 ENDLESS GRATITUDE 🐾💙

From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU to Veterinary Hospital in Swansea, MA for the extraordinary care you gave to K9 Zak—a true American hero who spent his career protecting the Presidents of the United States.

You didn’t just provide medical care—you honored his service. You treated K9 Zak with the dignity, respect, and compassion he earned through years of selfless duty, caring for him as if he were the President himself. That level of humanity, professionalism, and heart will never be forgotten.

🙏 A very special thank you to K9 Sergeant Dave Aguiar, 2025 K9 Handler of the Year, of the Rehoboth K9 EdoPolice Department, for his immediate response and selfless service in rushing K9 Zak to the hospital. Your actions, leadership, and dedication in that critical moment exemplify the very best of what this honor represents.

We are beyond grateful to have heroes like you—and to have Baystate Veterinary Hospital and the Rehoboth Police Department serving our community.

Thank you for standing with our K9 heroes when it matters most. 💙🇺🇸🐕
