FARMINGTON — The Davis County Sheriff’s Office is offering $1,000 to whoever returns a police K-9, that has been missing for nine days.
K-9 Kash was last seen on Oct. 21 just before 9 p.m. outside of Davis County Jail, when he was taken outside by his new handler for a bathroom break. He was not on a leash.
The sheriff’s office has searched Farmington, the waterfowl management area, Farmington Canyon and surrounding areas for him. Flyers were hung around Davis County and information on Kash has been shared with animal shelters across the Wasatch Front.
This week, the sheriff’s office announced the “active” search for Kash would be called off, meaning ground and aerial searches will no longer be organized in Farmington and surrounding areas.
“This decision was not easy, but it is necessary to ensure that we continue to provide public safety to the citizens of Davis County. Continuing active aerial and ground searches limits our ability to serve our community in the way we feel is necessary,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement Wednesday.
Officials believe Kash may have been picked up by someone who doesn’t know he is a missing police K-9. The office will continue investigating leads it receives regarding Kash, and a $1,000 incentive is being offered for his safe return.
