Baron wasn't crazy about being in a bright Fairbanks room with a bunch of strangers -- or maybe he knew his working days were over. But he was obedient as always: He whined a bit and lay down on the carpet while people gave him the respect he is due. The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reports that Baron, one of the city's two police dogs, is going into retirement.
After an exceptional eight years of service at the department, he will move to a different lifestyle - one that doesn't involve sniffing out drugs and chasing down the bad guys.
Baron joined the force in October 2002. [Sgt. Gregory] Foster was assigned as his trainer. In the years since then, Foster said, Baron's help led to tricky arrests and finds. ...
Within the department, the mantra is "trust our dog, follow our dog."
