Former Police Service Dog Passes

The Los Alamitos Police Department received sad news, learning that “Oska,” the police service dog who was a member of the Police Department from 2000 to 2005, passed away from natural causes on July 21, 2010. “Oska” had partnered with former Los Alamitos Police Officer, John Ema, before retiring when Officer Ema accepted a position with another police department. “Oska” was purchased from the City by Officer Ema in 2005, and spent the remainder of his years as a family pet.
