No one’s quick as Gaston…
No one’s slick as Gaston…
No one’s fur is incredibly thick as Gaston!
As a specimen, yes, he’s investigating.
My, what a dog, that Gaston!
Thursday marked the retirement of Gaston, a bomb-detection dog for the Virginia Beach Sheriff’s Office (VBSO).
VBSO hosted a final walkout at the Virginia Beach Correctional Center for the 8-year-old German shepherd to celebrate his long service with the office.
“We are sad to see K9 Gaston go. He has been a tremendous asset to the VBSO and the Virginia Beach community,” said Sheriff Rocky Holcomb. “We are proud of our K9 partners and wish Gaston a long, healthy retirement.”
