According to the sheriff’s office, K9 Robbi was found unresponsive by his handler and was rushed to Sweetwater Animal Hospital. Veterinarians later determined the K9 died of natural causes.
Robbi joined the sheriff’s office in September 2023 and quickly became a valuable member of the agency’s K-9 unit. In February, Robbi was recognized for helping deputies capture a suspected bank robber.
