K-9 Mark III was presumably built at some point by the Doctor, which he left on Earth as a present for Sarah Jane Smith.

History

Travels with Sarah Jane Smith

K-9 assisted Sarah Jane in defeating the Hecate worshippers of Moreton Harwood. (KAC A Girl's Best Friend)Circa 1983, K-9 Mark III still lived with Sarah Jane, but, by chance, did not accompany her to Gallifrey. (DW: The Five Doctors) K-9 accompanied Sarah to an archaeological dig in Egypt. (DWM: City of Devils) In the early 1990s, K-9 assisted Sarah in investigating a supposedly haunted house. (VD: Housewarming) In 1996, Sarah used K-9 to hack into records and find Sam Jones' home address, and later to translate Lost Boy's speech. (EDA: Interference - Book One)

Break down

K-9 was briefly possessed by a demonic pig spirit, but was freed when Sarah accidentally electrocuted him. (ST: The Sow in Rut) K-9 began slowly breaking down and eventually ended up deactivated in a cardboard box in Sarah's attic. (VD: Moving On) This was presumably set after 1996

Hilda Winters had K-9 dismantled and analysed. (BFSJS: Mirror, Signal, Manoeuvre) This story, as confirmed by the play is set in 2001, showing that, as K9 was in a box in Sarah Jane's attic, he had completely broken down, or Sarah Jane may be moving to Bannerman road

Later, Sarah Jane began carrying K-9's remains around in the boot of her car, having given up on being able to repair him with modern-day technology. (DW: School Reunion)

Sacrifice

In 2007, when Sarah Jane met the Doctor again, he successfully repaired K-9 Mark III, but K-9 sacrificed itself to stop the Krillitanes. He was once again rebuilt by the Doctor before his departure and K-9 joined Sarah Jane once again as her companion. (DW: School Reunion)

Features

When the Doctor left Sarah Jane Smith on Earth, he created K-9 Mark III to be Sarah's new companion. The new mechanics of K-9 Mark III included larger wheels in conjunction with a front and back-wheel drive. (K-9 was given a brand new coat of paint (this time a metallic-blue) plus a handle on the top of the shell to make carrying him easier. (KAC: A Girl's Best Friend)
