@blogdiva @_L1vY_ True story: a Girl Scout troop I helped lead had a K9 cop and his dog visit to talk about their work. One of the moms in the audience was a veterinarian, and after the cop and his dog had left, she quietly briefed the scouts on all the signs of stress and maladjustment the dog had been showing while he was there. She said these police dogs never live long and happy lives.
