K9 Kait

The Chelan County Regional Justice Center has introduced K9 Gambit, a 3-year-old border collie mix. In August, the jail lost its narcotics-detecting canine, K9 Kait, when she died suddenly while undergoing treatment for a liver condition.

K9 Kait served as a narcotics-detecting canine with her partner and handler Corrections Deputy Jacob Lewis at the CCRJC until earlier this year. K9Kait passed away unexpectedly last month while undergoing treatment for chronic hepatitis of the liver.

Kait is a seven-year-old border collie who has two medical issues, a vitamin B12 deficiency and a fluid buildup up in her abdomen.
