Officer Dudley, his fellow officer, Officer Bookhamer, and many other local law enforcement officers had the BEST morning helping area youth reel in some big ones at Greencastle’s Fish with a Cop! 🎣🐾👮‍♂️

There were lots of smiles, plenty of fish, and some great memories made along the way. Dudley may not have done much fishing himself, but he was more than happy to supervise the action! 💙🐟

Thank you to everyone who helped make such a fun morning possible for our local kids!

It’s easy to share all the great PR events Dudley gets to be part of throughout our community. But what very few people get to see is what Dudley does best. 💙🐾

Only a group of five people got to see Dudley make a little boy giggle and smile during his child custody interview yesterday.

Only the dozen or so people left in Courtroom 1 late yesterday morning got to see Dudley comfort a scared, crying young girl while her family member was being sentenced.

And only Dudley’s handler and another officer got to see him help one of our probation clients through a panic attack at the end of a busy day.

Those are the moments that truly show why Dudley is here.

We wish we could share pictures of these encounters, the quiet moments when Dudley sits beside someone who is scared, overwhelmed, or just needs a little extra comfort. But for obvious reasons, those are the moments we can’t photograph or post.

So instead, we’ll show you this. ❤️

At the end of one of Dudley’s long days, one of his best buds showed up to tell him **“good job.”**

And after the work Dudley did yesterday, we think he deserved to hear it. 🐾💙
