BURLINGTON, N.J. - A Lower Southampton police officer found a new partner and his "best bud" after a Burlington County animal rescue linked up with a foundation that trains shelter dogs as service animals.
Arrow, a young Belgian Malinois, was surrendered to Burlington County Animal Shelter in February of 2020 and had trouble finding a forever home due to his high energy, according to shelter attendant Debbie Bucci.
