Golden retriever police dog appears in yearbook photo after student plea


A popular golden retriever police dog has joined pupils in an annual school yearbook. K-9 Detective Gibbs has become the talk of the town after being enlisted in a US police force as a community outreach officer last summer.

The two-year-old four-legged investigator spends less time chasing leads than her colleagues, making regular appearances at Camp Hill School District, some three miles southwest of Harrisburg in Pennsylvania.

Camp Hill Police Department confirmed the pup took part in the annual yearbook photos.

The force said on January 26: “Thank you to the Camp Hill School District for allowing Detective Gibbs to participate in the school yearbook photos. He did a great job!”

They added that the pup helps ease students’ anxiety and stress.
