Remember last week when someone said be careful what you post here as a leo, in case someone takes issue with you one day, and you replied:

"Oh trust me, I am well aware of that. Hence the reason I don't have Facebook, Instagram, flicker etc. The name on my account here is not even real let alone what part of the country I'm from."

There's quite a bit of info on those magazine pages you posted. Just saying

What a beautiful animal, Tye! I adore German Shepard's and had one (or perhaps he owned me! I was never quite sure) for over 17 years. He was my "boy" and went everywhere I could take him.

When my wife and I had our first child we were a bit worried how he would respond to our little girl. After all, he was "our baby" and focus of most of our attention for six years. He immediately bonded with her (and our subsequent son born 14 months later) and became their protector, guardian and best friend! Those kids, even as toddlers and pre-schoolers could do anything to that dog, pull his ears, paws, tail, hair, heck even try to fit their heads in his mouth and that dog just let them.

He was very protective of them and us from day one. Even relatives and close friends who came by to see the kids had to get "Dirk's" permission to approach the kids!
One of the saddest days of my life was when we had to euthanize him due to illness and put him out of his misery. Still brings a tear to my eye thinking about it.

One of the best things we did with him as a puppy was to enroll him in dog obedience classes which he, my wife and I religiously attended bi-weekly for almost two years. He was so darn smart but with that came a lot of stubbornness. He definitely had a mind and an agenda all his own. I guess that's a trait that's pretty common in the breed.

To this day, even 10 years after he's been gone, my kids, now ex-wife and I talk about him and still have pictures of him all over the house. He was probably the best friend I ever had.(This is for Dirk!)

Fraser is a patrol/ narcotics dog. He tracks, apprehends, locates articles (gun thrown in a field) etc. and then he is trained in marijuana, heroin, cocaine, and meth.

Even though I know how it works, it blows my mind every time he does it.

Tye, retired here. You do your job right which I know you will you got nothing to worry about posting on here. If anybody got crazy enough to look you up I think you and your K9 can take care of business.

Here is my K9 partner now. Non sworn position.

She guards my Scotch. Stay safe Bro.

Except Fraser will never be able to work undercover again.

Always loved service dogs of all types. POTUS has nothing to worry about with your partner patrolling the perimeter around AF1.

Last year I was on a flight from Amsterdam to LAX and got into a conversation with the Dutch gentlemen sitting next to me

He shipped about 400 German Shepherd and Belgian Mechelaars to the US for security purpose like Police, Military, etc

Yes, my dog came from Germany. His real name is Fraser vonden Wolfen. Had to pick him up in Michigan. I guess that is the hub they fly the dogs into on the east coast.

Its pretty cool. He has a tattoo in his ear of his "serial number" and everything.

All dogs (and a lot of other animals) go via Lufthansa into the US

They are the only carrier that transport animals

Why . . . no clue at all - tried them all but no go . . .

I just know that flying my biggest buddy Baron (retired racing Greyhound) ticket from Brussels to LAX was about 1500 bucks . . .
