Retired Ohio police officer gets to buy K-9 partner for $1

MARIETTA, Ohio – A recently retired Ohio police officer has been allowed to buy his K-9 partner for $1.

Officials in Marietta had created a social-media stir when they said Matt Hickey's police dog, Ajax, had to be sold at auction because it was city property and could still work. Hickey and Ajax worked together for three years, and the dog lived with him.

Hickey was allowed to buy Ajax from the city on Thursday.

The cop and dog may have "served" their community, for which he received salary and benefits and retirement. In no way does that qualify as serving the country. Stop worshipping LEO's, or are you self-worshipping? "You lack a knight's humility."
