Police dogs are often seen in the media and by the public as serious and menacing crime fighters.
However, K9 officers have a fun and playful side to their personalities, as do their human partners.
World, meet K9 Chico. Chico is a German Shepherd patrol and drug officer with the Florida Orange County Sheriff’s Office.
When hitting the streets or doing pesky reports and paperwork, Chico’s working attire is a harness.
