State police announced the death of K9 Rocky on Thursday, April 21.
Police said Rocky was a partner to Trooper Jason Vital and retired in October.
"He was a hard worker and a faithful companion to his handler, and also to the Vital family," state police said in the announcement. "He is dearly missed by his family at home and the MSP family with whom he served. Free time now, Rocky, and endless fields of green for running and playing, on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge. You more than earned it."
