K-9 Cairo Retires From Escambia County Sheriff’s Office
April 16, 2021
Escambia County Sheriff’s Office K-9 Cairo retired Thursday after six years on the job.
“This is a ruff letter to write, but I must inform you of my decision to retire,” Cairo “wrote” in his retirement letter to Sheriff Chip Simmons. “Every dog has its day, and today is mine.” You can read the full retirement letter in the photos below.
Cairo’s day started at his daily muster where he was showered with retirement gifts. His day ended with a special pet-friendly treat from Simmons.

Thank you Mr Cairo and your handler for a job well done. There’s not a better friend in the world than a great dog. Congrats on a well deserved retirement.
This made my day!! I’m so glad to know he will be treated with love and respect and able to stay with his family rather than what happens to some other K-9 dogs when they are no longer “useful”. This is so AWESOME <3
Happy Retirement K-9 Cairo
Why after only 6 yrs? he doesn’t look like he is much older than 6 and could still perform other duties, he is going to be so sad not going to work anymore, these animals love their job, true public servants. Thank you Cairo for a job well done., I hope your handler gets to keep you and provides you with all the love you can stand.

K-9 Cairo, thank you for your loyal service. Enjoy the rest of your days patrolling your yard, keeping it safe and free of pesky squirrels. K-9s are such an amazing part of our law enforcement and are the best blood pressure medicine in the world.
