From the Spotsylvania Sheriff’s Office:
It is with a heavy heart the Spotsylvania Sheriff’s Office announces the passing of K9 Thor. K9 Thor faithfully served the communities of Spotsylvania and Orange with his partner Sergeant McGinnis. This was a formidable K9 team who served from November 2013 to May 2020 solving multiple cases together.
K9 Thor mentored Sergeant McGinnis in becoming a great handler and trainer. K9 Thor’s contributions will have a lasting impact on our agency, community, and K9 world.
After retirement, K9 Thor lived with Sgt. McGinnis, his wife Julie, and their children. K9 Thor was not only an amazing K9 partner, but an even more amazing pet and family member to the McGinnis family. Please keep the McGinnis family in your thoughts and prayers as they struggle with the loss of a loyal friend.
