Dog surprises officer

A small camera inside a Missouri police officer's hand-held radio caught the amazing turn of events after a dog was freed from a fence.

Plattsburg Police officer Nick Sheppard -- a self-professed "dog lover" -- responded to a call about a dog needing a rescue and found a large, brown dog with one of his hind legs caught in a metal chain link fence. Once the officer cut the fence and freed the dog, the four-legged canine took off running.

Officer Sheppard looked for the dog, but was unable to find the pooch and headed back to his patrol car.

We won't spoil it for you, but the dog was found. Unfortunately, Officer Sheppard didn't get to keep his new buddy. "Just to let you all know," wrote the Plattsburg Police Department on its Facebook page, "This happy doggy was picked up a short time later by his owner."
