West View Donates its Only Police Dog to Scott Township

Eddy, the West View Police Department's police dog, has been donated to Scott Township, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Despite a minor health concern, Eddy, the youngest police dog serving the area, was a model police dog, said his handler, West View police officer Joe Connolly . 

In addition to drug busts, Eddy rescued two people, including a 4-year-old girl who was missing and a 90-year old male Alzheimer patient who wandered off and was feared dead. 

At 70-some pounds, the four-year-old German Shepherd, was the only police dog on the force.
