The Clermont County Sheriff's Office recently lost a valuable member of its staff. The female bloodhound "Buffy" was euthanized as a result of cancer.
For 10 years, Buffy was partners with Cpl. Chris Stratton. Officials say after intense training, the duo quickly gained a noteworthy reputation.
Law enforcement agencies from Clermont, Hamilton, Brown, Adams, Highland counties and even Kentucky would call to request the team.
Some of Buffy's accomplishments include:
Tracking a stabbing suspect, who was hiding in an attic at a Felicity home.
Finding a severe diabetic who had ran into the woods in Batavia Township after using LSD.
Found the murder weapon in a double homicide in Sharonville.
Officials also say Buffy was an escape artist. She would break out of any kennel she was placed in. It caused quite a headache for her owner, but like any good dog, she always came back.
Buffy was 11-years-old.
