Police Who Failed To Find This Stray Dog A Home Adopted Him Themselves

No one wanted to give this stray dog a new home - so he was adopted by the police force who found him wandering the streets.

The huge pooch was spotted roaming around Kirtland, Ohio, in March and police were called to take him in.

Officers from the Kirtland Police Department decided against taking the animal - who they named JD - to a rescue shelter and set about finding his owner by themselves.

However, no one in the town of 6,800 people claimed the poor mutt so police thought they would give JD a home at their department instead.

The force wrote on Facebook: “The folks here at the Police Department wanted a good home for JD so with the permission of the Chief and the Mayor JD has been adopted by the Kirtland Police Association but they also share the warmth this stoic animal has brought with City Hall and the Fire Department.

“JD has fit into the environment as though he were here always.

“We are happy to have him in our department and our lives. He loves everyone and we love him.”
