Retired police dog spends his birthday rescuing a missing person

A retired police dog spent part of his birthday helping to find a missing person last month.

Bear, a 12-year-old German shepherd living in the United Kingdom, was celebrating his birthday with a long walk when he alerted his owners to a man “in dense undergrowth,” according to an Instagram post by the Thin Blue Paw Foundation.

“The man was confused, wet, and cold, and unable to get up,” the post continued. “Unbeknownst to RPD Bear, the man was a vulnerable missing person who officers had been searching for without success.”

The nonprofit shared that Bear’s quick actions helped the man receive assistance from local officers.
