WAYNESBORO, GEORGIA
An east Georgia police department said its only K-9 had to be put down after a drug bust.
Officers served an arrest warrant at a Waynesboro home Friday. Officials said the dog walked through a toxic ingredient used to make methamphetamine.
Officers tried to wash off the chemical but the dog had already started licking off his paws, police said.
The next morning I definitely knew that we had a problem because he didn’t recognize me or anybody. He was just…he acted as if his mind was gone,” said Officer Bruce Petitt of the Waynesboro Police Department.
The department decided it was best to put the dog down.
