Now, the 2-year-old Belgian Malinois named Karma is thriving as an explosives detection dog alongside her partner Deputy Patrick Hynes.A rough startLast November, a couple kids playing at a park saw a car pull up and let a dog out before driving off. Karma roamed outside for six days before people in the neighborhood finally coaxed her inside. There was an impending winter storm and everyone who wanted to save Karma kept their garages open in the hopes that she'd enter one, Hynes said.
Shortly after, Karma started her police dog training.Karma finished her training in April and was certified by the National Police Canine Association at the beginning of May. Now, she's just waiting for the sheriff to formally swear her in."We've already got her title and badge," Hynes said."She started working at the beginning of May."Hynes and Karma are assigned to the City and Council Building in Denver, where the mayor's and judges' officers are located.
