MANCHESTER, N.J. - A K-9 with the Manchester Police Department signed off for the final time and his last 10-7 call was captured on camera. Don't worry we translated it from dog to English.
"I have had the chance to create experiences that will last a lifetime, in dog and human years," K-9 Storm said in dog to English translation. "I am going to miss not only chasing bad guys but also community events where I got to meet so many wonderful humans.
