Medical retirement. He’s earned it.
On a related note, a couple years back a Border Patrol drug sniffing K-9 was released to pursue illegal aliens carrying drug loads. The dog went into the darkness and never came back. Turns out the dog just kept following the illegals as they made their way back to that fine piece of crap, Mexico.
The smugglers took in the dog and bragged about it.
The Border Patrol heard about this and tried to negotiate a hand-off from the smugglers and the Border Patrol and the smugglers refused.
Heat went up REAL HIGH along that stretch of the border and the cartel in that area had a ‘come-to-hey-sus-meeting’ (or was it a ‘come-MEET-hey-sus-meeting’) with the arrogant smuggler with the dog.
The smuggler disappeared and the dog returned.
Probably fed it a burrito and it became a friend for life.
