Wall of Honor
This page is dedicated to the K9s who have crossed the rainbow bridge, to honor their service and legacy.
​
Thank you, valiant souls.
Gizmo
Gizmo, handled and loved by Janelle Hideg, served Midwest K9 Search Unit as a Human Remains Detection K9 and Trailing K9. A boxer/cattle dog mix, he came from humble beginnings at a county shelter and his dedicated handler rehabilitated him through a dislocated and subsequently replaced hip joint. Her efforts yielded a loyal and consistent partner, most known for his trailing prowess and dedicated, stoic heart. Gizmo worked on dozens of deployments over his lifetime all over the state of Ohio and had several confirmed finds. Gizmo loved his job and would let everyone know when it was HIS turn at training (even when it wasn't), and his favorite reward was french fries.
