A very special pooch came to 91大黄鸭 to make sure that students were safe to return to school after Quigley Elementary received a threat on April 4.
While the police would not disclose the nature of the threat, reports posted on social media believed that it may have been a bomb threat.
Libby, a Police Services Dog, rolled up to the school on Hollywood Rd. in her Police Service Dog SUV with her handler Cpl. Jake Carrier that evening.
Carrier advised that Libby received a cheeseburger for her hard work due to the extra travel and a long day.
鈥淟ibby is a good girl,鈥� said 91大黄鸭 RCMP鈥檚 Cpl. Jim Dehoog.
The three-and-a-half-year-old German Shepherd lives in the lower mainland and was trained in Alberta.
