Hopefully people can use it wisely, I’m sure, because the Sherbrooke Police Department has always taken good care of Kanaks., she added.

Colombo succeeds Kanac, the first emotional support dog dedicated to victims across Quebec. The latter retired last June, after 5 years of service and more than 400 interventions.

Victims, you will still have emotional support to help you get through the tough times. Welcome to the city of Sherbrooke, Colombo, and above all, long live SP.

Quote from:Daniel Berthold, City Councilor

Like its predecessor, Colombo is part of a partnership between SP and the Mira Foundation. He will stay with the police for at least five years. A budget of $7,000 per year was released by the Board as part of this agreement.
