Handler – Jason Venditto
CPWDA is sad to announce the passing of K9 Viking who passed away on 9/15/18 at the age of 7 years old due to bloat and was handled by Sergeant Jason Venditto of the Hamden Police Department. Sergeant Venditto has been a long time member of CPWDA, joining with his first K9 Titan on 3/29/05. Sgt. Venditto’s current partner Viking was certified in Patrol and Narcotics and were lifetime members joining on 2/2/13. K9 Viking served from 12/20/12 to 9/15/18. Our thoughts and prayers are with Sergeant Jason Venditto, family, friends and members of the Hamden Police Department during this difficult time. We thank you Viking for your service to the community, R.I.P. Viking.
