The tender farewell of a German shepherd on his last day as a police dog

Dogs have multiple skills and qualities that are accentuated depending on their breed. It is for this reason that it is more common to see dogs performing tasks such as acting as a guide dog to accompany a blind person, for example.

There are other dogs that provide emotional or psychological support, what is commonly known as "companion dogs", or those who take on the role of police dog. But when the time comes to retire from service, they do so in a memorable way, like Layka.

Layka is a German Shepherd who has her own TikTok account. There, his human and police partner published the video of the farewell that the team offered him on his last day of service. The agents were waiting for the dog Layka in a room and when she arrived with her partner, they threw tennis balls at her.

Layka went for a ball, but there were so many that she didn't know which one to pick up. He couldn't cope and that made the agents who were saying goodbye to his furry companion laugh. "It has just become my favorite video," said one Internet user when she saw the images. "I'm crying," confessed a user, in line with other comments who claimed that they had been moved by this tender and fun farewell.

The German Shepherd is a breed of dog that stands out for a wide range of reasons, ranging from its remarkable obedience and ease of training to its innate protectiveness. This combination of attributes makes it a popular choice for various tasks and roles.

His outstanding intelligence facilitates the training process, making him a rewarding companion for those looking for a dog that is easy to handle and train. Furthermore, among their many qualities and characteristics, the fact that they can detect anomalies from a distance stands out, and they have great skill in finding people or objects. That is why dogs of this breed are often chosen as police dogs.
