After the shooting death of a Pittsburgh Police canine officer in Mt. Oliver Tuesday, more attention is being paid to the hard work police dogs do in making arrests, finding drugs and protecting police.
While some may consider them to be just a dog, a Mt. Lebanon police officer told KDKA he believes his canine partner is invaluable. Canine officers are well-trained, they have police badges and are considered police officers under the law in Pennsylvania.
Officer Michael Smakosc says they also form bonds with their partners that last a lifetime.
