Dax was initially paralyzed in his hindquarters, but has regained the use of his legs through physical therapy.
Dax, one of the Lake County Sheriff’s Office’s police dogs, is retiring after being injured while helping his deputy handler make an arrest last month.
Dax, a male German shepherd and retiring member of the K-9 unit at the Lake County Sheriff’s Office, demonstrates one of his skills at a 2016 fundraiser for Illinois Special Olympics. “Deputy John Forlenza and K-9 Dax exemplify what a true partnership looks like,” Sheriff John Idleburg said. “They are among the top canine teams in the nation. There was virtually nothing K9 Dax couldn’t handle.”Zion police said two people were hurt by gunfire in incidents on the same block on consecutive days.
The members from the administrative office of Illinois Courts Access to Justice Division’s Court Navigator Network spent March 15 in local SRL courtrooms, watching the programs in action. They also met with 19th Judicial Circuit judges and staffers to discuss issues affecting access to justice.
