SUBLETTE COUNTY– The Sublette County Sheriff’s Office regrets to announce the passing of retired K9 “Max.” Max began his career with the SCSO in May of 2009.

Along with his partner, Deputy Dan Ruby, Max worked for approximately five and a half years seizing multiple types of drugs coming in to Sublette County.

K9 Max retired from duty in November 2014, and afterward became a permanent member of the Ruby family. Deputy Ruby described Max as, “A small lapdog trapped in a big dog’s body. He was always happiest near me.”
