K-9 dog dies after being left in patrol car.

Above: Headline news in this morning’s Marietta Daily Journal:

First sentence:. The Acworth Police Department is investigating the death of one of its K-9 unit police dogs that died of an apparent heat stroke after being left inside a patrol car late Monday.

The article goes on to say that the Acworth Police would not say if charges will, or can be charged against the officer in charge of the patrol car.

Tch tch. Shame. Bad Cop! Bad Cop!

That's a sad story. A highly trained, working dog that's good at what he does is left to die in a hot car. If only someone had at least heard him.

But given the close relationship between a police dog and his handler, I'm guessing the guy is really upset by it.

Just goes to show. Accidents do happen.

Button,
I'm sure it was an accident - but it accident or not, it was careless.
