About Schimmel Dog Park:

Located on the corner of Cucamonga Avenue and I Street. The dog park was constructed in 2016 and opened on May 21, 2016. The park name is in dedication to police service dog, “Ex” Von der Schimmel – Schultz Heide, who was shot and killed protecting his handler, Corporal Ernie Dorame, while assisting patrol officers in search for an armed suspect that was firing shots in a residential area of the City.  Due to Ex’s sacrifice, it lead to the capture of the armed gunman and also prevented him from shooting Dorame and other members of the patrol team.
