PRATTVILLE, Ala. (AP) — Police in central Alabama say a man’s own dog helped officers bust him on a drug charge.
Prattville Police spokeswoman Paula Barlow says the pooch named Bo followed his fleeing master, who was being pursued by officers. When the dog stopped and wagged his tail in tall grass, she says, officers found and arrested Edwin Henderson.
Barlow says the chase began when two drug officers arrived Wednesday with a search warrant and Henderson took off running.
After an investigator pointed at Henderson and told the dog “go get him,” that’s what Bo did.
Barlow says Henderson is charged with failure to obey police, manufacturing a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. It’s unclear if he has an attorney, and there’s no word on who’s taking care of Bo.

A boy and his dog…
No word on who’s taking care of Bo? I’d think that would be the most important part of the story for most people!
So much for man’s best friend! Guess that will teach the guy to hold out on his dog. I always give mine a sip of my beer.
good doggie!
