To our favorite four-legged friend, Aldo:

Happy 7th Birthday!  Whether you’re tracking, training, or keeping our streets safe, you do it with a level of focus and bravery that is inspiring.  Seven years old marks the prime of your career, you’ve got the wisdom of a veteran and the drive of a pup.

We hope today involves an extra-long game of catch with your favorite toy, a massive steak, and maybe a well-deserved nap in the shade.  Thank you for your service, your sharp nose, and your wagging tail. Good boy, Aldo!

A Special Note to Officer Baxter:

Behind every great K9 is a dedicated handler.  Officer Baxter, thank you for the countless hours of training, the late nights, and the unwavering care you provide for Aldo.

We know that being a K9 handler is a 24/7 commitment that follows you home, and we truly appreciate the sacrifices you make to keep this team at the top of its game.

Thank you for keeping Aldo and all of us safe.
