10/21/23 Iro Goes Home
21 October 2023 News
Less than a week after being shot several times during an incident in Fond du Lac, a Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s K9 has returned home with his handler. Iro and Deputy Blaine Evans walked out of BluePearl Pet Hospital in Appleton Friday. Many of their colleagues with the Sheriff’s Office and hospital staff were there for the occasion. They applauded and offered words of encouragement and praise. It was much earlier than anyone predicted, but Iro met all of the metrics necessary for release and continues to progress every day. Sheriff Ryan Waldschmidt says the staff and surgical team at the hospital have been amazing. He says without them, Iro would not be with us today. He says there is still a lot of rehabilitation and healing ahead, but Iro is one tough K9. Sheriff Waldschmidt says updates will be provided in the future, but now that Iro has been released daily updates will no longer be posted.
