What will the dogs do now?Deputy Chief, Brett Johnston, said, “It’s kind of sad. Nobody wants to see a dog lose its job.” However, once a dog goes through a specific training it can be very difficult to retrain an adult dog rather than pup. To be retrained or retired--that is the question. Still, police have said the dogs may be able to work future counterfeit cases. The Medford police have requested additional funding from the city for new pups to be trained to smell other drugs.Fortunatly, Police Chief, Tim George, promised that, regardless, Narc and Cody will end up in good homes. Cody’s handler said he’d be happy to adopt his co-worker.Graham explained, “We don’t say they’re being fired, we prefer to call it early retirement.”We wish Cody and Narc the best of luck, and thank them for all the work done!
