A police officer and his K9 partner of six years will retire together on Friday, the Lewisville Police Department says.
K9 Cziko is retiring because of underlying medical problems that prevent him from working as a police service dog. Instead of working without Cziko, Ofc. Shane Menz will retire at the same time.
Menz, who has more than 25 years of experience in law enforcement, joined the Lewisville police in 2004, eventually becoming the department s third K9 handler.
