After five years of exceptional service, PSD Jade has retired following Sgt. Jesse Schellenberg’s promotion and transfer out of the Canine Unit. This dedicated duo worked tirelessly to protect Vancouver, leaving a lasting impact on the community.
Jade’s bravery was unmatched—she once took a gunshot to protect her partner, demonstrating extraordinary courage. A steadfast supporter of the VPF and recipient of the VPD Exemplary Service Award, Sgt. Schellenberg was always accompanied by Jade, whose charm and loyalty captured the hearts of everyone she met.
Now, as Sgt. Schellenberg steps into a new role, Jade is enjoying a well-earned retirement at home with the Schellenberg family, surrounded by love and comfort. While she may no longer wear the VPF-funded ballistic vest she once proudly donned, her legacy of service and joy will always be remembered.
