K9 Yaro was retired by the department after the passing of his partner and will live out his life in the loving care of Kevin’s family. Kevin was very active in our organization and the community. He was a positive influence on the young people of Galt. Kevin readily answered questions about his beloved K9 Yaro and all things K9, happy to educate anyone about K9 needs. In addition to his dedication to Galt PD, the community, and our organization, Kevin was fun and funny and we miss him greatly.
