- When police officer Ryan Davis lost his partner, Jethro, in the line of duty, it left a huge hole; his partner also doubled as the beloved family dog. The city of Canton, Ohio, tried its best to fill that hole this week, and Steve Hartman was there.
"My 'partner' has been shot"... damn, I cried
yeah that got me hard
The fact that he said “partner” and not “dog” shows their close bond
Me too 😢
Paloma Pseudoautista yo my mind went bad places
keith Johnson what is wrong with you
Jethro: Was I a good boy?
God: Yes, the goodest
there is no god, but there is a very very good boy
Skew you for cutting onions
SobeCrunkMonster seriously dude we have freedom of religion, you can respect his beliefs
Sobe most of the population of the world is religious as well as me so could you please respect our religion
Uhh I think you mean best
"My partner" I'm a man and yes I'm crying like a baby. Now I have to get off here, I have to go give my dog a hug.
I made my original comment over a year ago and my buddy was attacked by a PitBull 2 months ago, February 16th 2021. The pitbull jumped our enclosed fence a day after we got a lot of snow. He was in the front yard and I got a bang on my window from a neighbor I looked out and seen a big dog in my yard. I quickly put 2 and 2 together and sprinted outside in a t-shirt and shorts, barefoot in a foot of snow and when I got to my dog he was on is back with the Pitbull clamped down on his neck, bleeding and looked dead. I start punching the pit bull in the head and the started picking up by his neck he then dropped my dog then I started to push him over the fence with my neighbor on the other side of the fence helping me. When he dropped my dog, my dog starting limping to the front door, I was suprised he was alive then the pitbull ran about 10 feet down my fence and jumped it again and started to go after my dog again and I luckily was quick enough to intersect him and my dad let my dog in the house. I rushed him to the animal hospital and he got staples on 3 different spots around his neck. He is now almost fully recovered and the Pitbull has been put to sleep. The same Pitbull had attacked another dog 3 weeks before it attacked mine I found out afterwards. My dog, Cosmo is a Jack Russell and I almost lost him but thankfully I didn't lose him. Once again I am now crying like a baby while typing this and have to go lay next to my buddy and go to sleep. Take care everyone.
Jethro, you are my buddy's hero.
@@u2zero2u did the other dog die? Not your neighbours, the one attacked 3 weeks before. And well do for your quick reaction.
You should really get a life! It's only a f'in dog
I always do that when I hear about this kinda stuff
Why did you say you are a man? Still thinking like in 1900 where man werent allowed to cry?
I was perfectly fine until i hear him say my partner has been shot. I bawled our tears.
remember he didn't say my dog has been shot. He said his partner has been shot; that's how important Jethro was to him.
I'm peeling onions well that's my excuse brave boy
Literally 45 seconds in
Raining here
This is what dogs are about. I feel sorry for anyone that hasn't experienced the unconditional love and loyalty from a dog.
I really want a dog! What would you recommend? 😁
Koroppi lover💚 It would depend on your living conditions. Apartment, house, city or out in the country. To be honest, I have had so many different breads, it would be hard to choose. I loved all of them. I would suggest going to an animal shelter or humane society. This way you would not only get the best friend you ever had but also save its life. I have five dogs but have a huge area and live in the country.I promise, you can't go wrong. You will learn a lot from them if you pay attention. Good luck
+Patrick van meter Thank you so much! I can really tell that you love dogs. I will update you when I have one!
+Koroppi lover💚 Please do so. I would love to hear about your new friend. Good luck.
***** Good for you and good for the pup. You will never regret it. Truly mans best friend and friend for its life. Congrats and enjoy.
All K9 canine officers need bullet proof vests too.
Why is that woman videotaping other peoples' dogs?
@Sanna Boy The dogs risk their lives lmao stdu
The need bullet proof everything actually
Erica Schehr
Even a shooting target?😂
Some do but it's not as effective due to it being a dog etc
There is no greater love than to lay down your life for another rest in peace puppy
dogs teach us three things, unconditional love and loyalty, and that nothing is forever
TRUE TRUE
Dogs are so loyal :'( i'm crying so much
same
I know, I'm crying right now, I wish I could have been in there and just died for that dog, because he has a family and he deserves to live a full life.
Ditto!
Same
Cyka blyat
*Jethro* : was I a good k-9 officer?
*death* : no
*death* : they told me you were the best...
Hey that's my name😂
*death:* they told me you were the best in youre world
dude i was so about to say some choice words to you until i hit show more
Couldn't be more fitting a statement!
This deserves more likes
I wasn’t expecting to cry. Here I am sobbing to a dog I never met 😔
Yes I know how u felt.i did the same..i love dogs and like the other person that wrote canine policedogs should wear vests too...❤ that remark!!! So luxx.on the sauce," I feel you"..😥
@@raycabrera2225
I think Jethro was wearing a vest, but it gives almost no front protection nor head/face ☹️
I just lost my 6 year old German Shepherd to cancer. I hope Jethro teaches her the ropes in heaven.
I am so sorry for you. I send you a big kiss from France.
I feel sorry for the family of the k9 who died protecting the human handler
Stephanie Smith : not a human handler, that was his PARTNER!!!!
@@patrooney2283 exactly
Pat how the officer who controls his dog is a handler and the K9 is the dog and the dog died protecting his handler
The “K9” was his family pet. Do you call yourself the handler of your animals. Nah didn’t think so. He lost his family pet, his best friend and his furry 4 legged partner. The dog handles himself in saving his humans life.
It'll be okay you'll see stephanie Smith he was a good pet!
My prayers K-9 Jethro. May God welcome you with open arms.
Nscoaldrag
yes
and amen
@Terrelle Harper and you don't either
If he doesn’t he ain’t god
🙏🏻✝️
When Jethro gets to run in the new earth God is creating, he will never shed a tear.🐾❤️🙏🏻😶
There’s such a big difference in saying “my partner has been shot” and saying “my dog has been shot”😭🥺 shows just how close they were this was so sad yet so touching
"He's left a hole that will never be filled" broke my heart. Every dog after that major heart break doesn't quite fill that void, they get you in other ways. Our past dog was the one who would just make himself at home on the could next to you or hop up on the recliner and chill out on the leg stand between your legs and just sleep, our current dog she's a go getter and loves to play but at night is a sweetie who just wants to stay curled up tightly and get a good petting. Dogs really do make grown men weep, too bad it's on their way out :(
Joe, I found the last line of your statement profound. Just …… WOW!
Sitting here in Napier, New Zealand crying my eyes out. If officer Davis or his family ever read this there are 2 things I would like you to know: 1) Had it been you who had died his grief would be just as bad. 2) As much as it hurts right now be thankful, every day you wear the uniform you wear it for him now.
Karlandra
yes right.
Your comment is why I'm a police officer
♥️ from Taupo!
❤❤❤
What a lovely inspiring comment❤
I'm in tears. No joke. God bless Jethro and the cop too. K-9 and Blue Lives MATTER!!
Blue? the crips?
Project Blue as in the police officers
@@JesusIsLove73 😂😂😂 sure
I kept it together until the bagpipes and taps at the end. Gets me every time
Crip lives MATTER 💯
Sorry for your loss. Jethro, thank you for your service! You have earned your wings. R.I.P.
We cry with you Officer.....you can never replace him, but, you loved each other a lot and have lots of good memories together. God bless you both.
I'm bawling my eyes out,hope the suspect rots in prison!
Yeah and I hope you would feel the same way if someone shot your dog.
@@jediskunk67 I would think thats obvious???
Death to the suspect
"All suspects are guilty, period! Other wise they wouldn’t be suspects wouldn’t they?"
Unfortunately you only get months for animal cruelty
heartbroken for you Officer, RIP Officer Jethro
Os sad omg
meanwhile Michael Vick who shot, castrated, electrocuted and drowned dogs is still revered.
@@16rumpole who?
Dogs are the most loyal babies ever! It’s so heart breaking to loose someone... my heart goes out to all the people that lost a person or pet that was close to them, I’ve gone through it twice in not even a year...😔
The pain of losing a friend is indescribable
How can he say “do you mean that?” The dog is a mans best friend. They are so loyal and help more than people
because he is a reporter, a special subclass of humans they are.
Because logically it makes no sense. I would much rather lose a dog than a husband or father. As a person whos lost both, I'm sure the wife and kids would probably agree with me.
@Laura Dufresne
It only makes sense to people who love dogs. I'd give people in my life for my own dog in a heartbeat. At least humans don't stab you in the back and dogs love you unconditionally. So yes... it makes perfect sense.
@@kylaia3155 I love dogs. I've had multiple dogs in my life and have cried each time they died. But I never once thought I would wish to die instead of my dog. I'm realistic with my dogs. They are dogs. Not kids.
And for dogs don't stab you in the back, that's because they're animals. They don't have the brain capacity and complex emotions capable of doing that.
@@lauradufresne6628 Exactly my point. People who love their dogs like FAMILY. Dogs aren't just any old animals to some people. Also, exactly, they aren't capable of betraying you, that's why they're 100x better than any human companion. They won't just up and leave you if they love you and you treat them right.
we need to honor Jethro the other K9 officers lost this week (2) by insisting they are given vests and some type of retirement plan. a k9 ended up in a kill shelter just a few weeks ago because the officer he retired with fell into 'personal'problems, thankfully his original handler found out because of public outcry rescued him, these dogs risks their lives every day for us. RIP officer Jethro, thank you for serving us everyday
yes, agree with you, K9 officers should wear vests and have a retirment found ir each county should build a K9 retirment center were they will be treated humanly and with compasion, we need to remember this animals give their lives to protect not only their handlers but that of all of us, keeping us safe
And Military Dogs also should be well taken care of..
They could model it after the retirement plans that they use for police horses and military horses. One of the biggest problems that seem to crop up with retired police dogs that I don't think you see as much with retired horses is that even after they can no longer physically handle the day to day demands of being a police dog they still need that kind of mental stimulation. They don't really "retire" very well. there working dogs and that's what they love to do. It would have to be a structured environment that provides the daily enrichment they desire and need. However, it's long-overdue it's not like they don't earn it.
Check out Mike Ritland and the work he does for K9’s through the Warrior Dog Foundation.
They shouldn't be allowed to take dogs into danger to begin with. Cops make a good salary and makes the choice to be a cop. The dog does not have the choice.
The relationship between a human and a dog is like no other, the loyalty they have is unbelievable and their understandment for us as well. Truly our best friends.
Thank you for your heroism and unconditional love, dear Jethro! Rest in peace.
Poor Jethro you wont be forgotten but remembered as a hero who did what he was trained to do we wont forgot you little buddy :'(
This dog is something you can't forget and can't replace ❤🐶
My dad is a canton cop and he got called for backup on this call it it was to late and my dad even went to Jethros funeral. RIP baby I love you and we all miss you buddy fly high
Damn I feel his pain. The love and loyalty of a dog and a men is like nothing else. Sir I'm sorry for your loss.
I will always remember Jethro because of this story. I hope this helps ease the pain.
This, my friends, is a good boy.
I'm So Sorry you lost Jethro. My heart felt prayers are with you and your family.....always.....
Cheers to our hero canine and his human partner. Thank you both for your service and your never ending courage. Prayers to both of you, your family, and the other human and canine officers.
Hard to type a nice message whilst being a complete mess.
same and im a grown man lol
I am so sorry for your loss.it brought me to tear's.to see the love and loyalty that dog gave to you and your family. I will pray for you and your family.thank you for your service!
Heartbreaking, can't imaging how his partner is feeling❤️❤️❤️❤️ Now that's what you call a hero
Seeing the hurt still in his face breaks my heart. The bonds we have with our family pet is far stronger than just calling them a pet. They are of protectors, our purest love and for this officer his partner on the job. He gave his life to save his partner and human. My heart hurts for him.
Plz issue them bullet proof vests and headgear😢
Lydia Lewis the headgear would be to heavy and to big
@Ricardo Smarts ok hillbilly
@@motorcitycobra8875 he is talking logic
That is a true remark.those dogcops should have protective gear too...love the fact I read almost all remarks and ur the only one to suggest that love it!!!❤❤
@@painpain4490 He's saying a dog has no problem carrying around an 80 pound child like a mule. Even if that were true, a police K-9 has to be able to perform certain task quickly without being slowed down. If you don't see the logistical problem, let alone ethical problem, with putting that much weight on a dog for hours at a time...then you can take your logic and stick it you know where.
I have always been touched by how fallen k-9 partners are honored just as any other officer would be
There a thing that if you killed an k9 partner you are also charged for killing an officer as well
RIP sweet Jethro. Thank you for your service
When you are ready....the only thing that will fill the void is another dog to love and love you back. Doesn’t mean you forget your hero...it will actually honor him. Thank you both for your service!! Go Blue! Humans and Dogs both. What the heck would we do without you.
Jesus I was trying to find something to say but I’m at a loss of words. Just crying like a baby. Rip Jethro
You never get over the loss. I know I will see my best friend again. God bless
You shouldn't have to wish to be in his place. Be thankful that your still alive to serve another day. I know he would want to to work another day but without you being there with your family would be more devastating to them and all. Thank you for your service. God bless you and the wonderful dog.💜💙💚💛🧡❤
He had a job and a family just like a human. What a great dog :.(
R.I.P Jethro. Thank you for your service.
i couldn't stop crying, i was crying about 35 minutes #LongLiveK9 #RIPK9 #WeMissYou 😔😢😭
R,I,P, Jethro, you brave K9 Officer. Condolences to your Family.
Oh my I am so sorry for your loss. Much love from a dog lover in South Africa
Rip hero. Your paw prints will always be in the hearts of every one who loves you ❤️
We don't deserve dogs. The courage and loyalty they show is beyond comprehension. This hurts. He was so young. Damn
Cried my eyes out. Fly high Jethro you did good boy. He is a Guardian Angel and will be with his partner one day again. Believe that one day Jethro will be waiting to greet him at the gate...♥️♥️♥️♥️
Not a dry eye and it’s only 10 seconds in. The urgency and severity of that radio call is something that gives any officer listening a chill.
.R.I.P Jethro YOU WILL BE MISSED BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN. YOUR ARE A HERO!
I must confess. I´ve cried watching this. A lot. I also had two k9 daughters. They gave some much love to our family. I missed them every single day of my life. Who had the rare privilege of having the company of the most loyal friend GOD ever created, NEVER forgets. Its a bad world and a bad times we are living. Cant explain properly, but the entire world is turning so bad on daily basis. Sad times.
If that doesn't get you in the feels, I don't know what will...
When he said “ I would trade places with him and he mean it “ I lost. Thank you every unit of law enforcement. Thank you heroes.
I know exactly how he feels... losing my baby boy left a hole in me that just won’t ever fill or stop aching.
My heart breaks for this officer.
RIP Jethro ❤️
You don't know how it feels for your partner to be taken right in front of you, knowing that there could've been something you could do. Especially when that dog would've done anything for you.
Thank you Jethro. For your service as a Canine officer, & for protecting your community. You will be missed & loved, but you will never be forgotten. Rest In Peace Jethro
When he said he would trade places my heart just stopped. A lot of K-9 dogs are not treated like pets and stay in a kennel, he had a wonderful family and they will never forget him.
I think the "I would trade places with him" was bull. These dogs are treated like utilities and are not loved and treated like pets. They should not be allowed to have dogs in the police force or in war.
Damn that hurts I feel so sorry for that officer on losing not only his partner but a member of his family
Great send off, guys. And Officer Davis, get a pup right away. It will not replace Jethro, but a pup's activities will keep your mind on him and not on the past. Besides, every pup needs a great owner/trainer! Help one out, Sir!
Should put a law in effect that you shoot and a k9 dog that in its same as shooting a police officer.
Yes! (However the death penalty could be questioned tho is it harsh? No they killed an innocent animal they should die no questions asked)
Officer Jethro was an amazing Officer, thank you for your service.
I feel like I'm a pretty hard guy, I never cry from anything. I lost close friends and barely cried. But anytime a dog passes away I cry hard. Just watching this video I had to hold back tears because i felt the pain of the officer.
My best friend and baby German shepherd K9 Retired in the military I learned he has my back 24/7 all year around. Your K9 is a hero and now a little angel watching for you. It’s hard not to cry God bring peace and comfort fort your lose
I feel him ... I would feel the same if I had lost my dog.
I cried during this so much.. We salute you Officer Jethro
Love you Jethro. Gone but NEVER forgotten... RIP Hero...❤❤❤
You know dogs are different from us because they innocence like babies. Their love is genuine and the friendship and bond is forever till death. The animal would die for you to protect you to know you're safe he'll move on with love and his heart will be full knowing you loved him. God bless
broken hearted for you Officer, RIP Officer Jethro
😭😭😭 RIP Jethro. You are a hero. Thank you for selflessly giving your life so that your partner got to go home and be with his family.
it's very hard I lost mine on November 26, 2019 at the age of ten, ten years of life with my German Shepherd.
friendships to all dog handlers in the United States and elsewhere.
K9 jethro our hero too for protecting his partner Thank you for honoring him in this way
.R.I.P Jethro YOU WILL BE MISSED BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN GOOD BOY YOUR MY HERO!
I feel for this officer losing a member of his family and partner. Dogs are so loyal and his word "unconditional " is perfect cause that's exactly how they love. 🥺
I just lost my 13 year old German Shepherd today who I've had since he was 8 weeks old. I by the grace of god got to be there when he passed away just by chance as his death came unexpected. Five minutes before he passed him and I were literally just playing in the yard together like a normal day, but little did I know what was getting ready to happen. It's been extremely difficult since 11:45 this morning and I'm currently writing this(2:25am) cause I'm unable to sleep. A very big piece of my life is gone and man it hurts. He's been a daily part of my routine for the last 13 years and now that routine is over and gone in the blink of an eye. As I sit here heavy hearted and still in shock I'm very much thankful and grateful to
have had such an amazing friend. 😭😭
RIP SISCO ❤

God bless the Pup and his family. So heartbreaking.
Hero never dies he just becomes a Legend that shall never be forgotten 🐅 ❤
God bless Jethro.🙏 What he did was extremely heroic and truly amazing. May he rest in peace knowing that everyone will remember him as part of their family instead of just a dog. God bless him knowing that everyone else still continue to love him. He really did go beyond the call of duty.
He's our hero and I know
He'll never be replaced 😢
Im so very sorry 💕 I hope your heart heals fast. Thank you both for your service
There's no greater Love than for one to lay his life down for his brother with such courage and bravery you will be truly missed rest in peace my friend
Wow, he took a bullet for his partner!!! No greater love.......💕💕💕
Three bullets for his human friend.
And the officer said "I would trade places for him in a heartbeat" that shows how much he loved his best friend.
I’m so sorry Ryan . He was such a brave and loyal partner till the very end may he Rest In Power .
Sorry for your loss. Truly dog's are man's best friend
Dogs don't know work, they know what makes you happy.
respect all dog k9 from iran🙏
Jethro R.I.P you will be reunion with officer Davis 🇺🇸😇
So sorry for you loss. God Bless you all and thank you for your service.
Jethro, we thank you for your service 🙏🏻 🐕
Ryan: I am so sorry for your loss. He was a real HERO!!
Found 3 dogs in the dumpster and we gave 2 away and kept one, he saved me from potentially killing myself, I was standing against a very insecure wall, and if it wasn't for my dog barking I would've fell off the wall. The statement that dogs are the human's best friend is SO TRUE! I love my dog and always will. May the fallen K-9 officers rest in piece.
I cryed because my dad's k9 died too in the force I love that dog rest in peace both of you guys
😞😢😢😢Loyalty, commitment, dedication and courage, Jethro had it all. I feel your pain Officer Davis, you had a bond with Jethro like no other. May he Rest in Eternal Peace knowing that he gave his life to save yours 💔💙🐾
From an ex dog handler with West Yorkshire England Police 😞
This poor officer lost his best friend and partner protecting him your a good doggo youve been a good boy rest peacefully
the world best doggo. RIP
Dogs make great best friends and fine police officers. No man deserves the pain of losing someone they welcomed to their family and loved.
Janet rip Jethro thankyou for your service you sweet lovely boy. xx from Scotland.!
