Watch: Delhi Police thanks K9 squad on International Dog Day

Nowadays, dogs are quite trending across social media. On the occasion of International Dog Day on Friday, numerous photos and videos featuring cute and adorable canines surfaced the internet. But, the Delhi Police came up with something different that reminds us how police dogs are equally responsible for our security. They came up with a Twitter post to mark the importance of the K9 squad in the police department. The K9 squad includes trained German Shepherds who are assigned to search for drugs, explosives and other illegal items with their extreme sense of smell.
