Police officers and their canine partners risk their lives to uphold the law. Unfortunately, sometimes that risk results in an injury. Bruno the German Shepard, a hardworking canine officer, was shot in the face while he was chasing a suspect. He had to go into emergency surgery to save his life.

His partner visited as soon as he could — and the reunion was so heartwarming to see.

This little guy could not be happier to see his best friend!

R.J. and Bruno are as close as partners could be and will always have each other’s backs. It’s heartwarming to see such an amazing friendship.
