DELAND, Fla. — A K-9 deputy that was shot when responding a domestic disturbance has received two honors from the Volusia County Sheriff's Office.
It was the first time in recent memory the honors had been given to a dog. Endo was shot in the neck last November when responding with Whitson to a domestic disturbance call.
Endo was used to track a suspect into some woods. Whitson says that even though Endo was hit by a bullet when a suspect started firing, the dog never let on that he was injured.
Endo was later taken to an animal hospital for emergency surgery.
