An emotional farewell

[The Dragon Master]

A Massachusetts police dog got a official send off as over a dozen officers saluted the hound on his way to be put down.

Kaiser, a two and a half year old German Shepard, was a member of the Plymouth, Massachusetts police department.

The dog was laid to rest after a brief battle with kidney disease by handler Ptl. Jamie Lebretton, who lead the K-9 through a gauntlet of officers paying tribute to the crime fighting canine.

I somehow knew I shouldn't have read that full article and I was right. That was heart-wrenching and brought tears to my eyes. Bless all the officers who were there for his final journey. I feel so badly for the officer who has lost his friend and partner.

Glad that dog was able to get a proper send off. Such a sad story :-/
