Together, a Michigan police dog and his handler have safely located five lost children during their seven-year partnership, establishing an impressive record and an exceptional bond!

It was approximately 4:00 p.m. on Monday, March 4, when law enforcement responded to a report of a missing toddler in Michigan's Geneva Township, according to South Haven Area Emergency Services (SHAES) and an incident report filed by Van Buren County Sheriff's Office.

A POLICE DOG HELPS FIND THE BOY​

A three-year-old boy wandered from his home on 68th Street after pushing a screenout of an open window. According to The Independent, Deputy Eric Calhoun and his eight-year-old Belgian Malinois Kuno arrived at the residence about 30 minutes after the child was last seen. Other officers were on the scene, and SHAES drone operators searched from above in an effort to locate the boy, who had gone missing wearing only a diaper.

Kuno and Deputy Calhoun quickly discovered a footprint, which led them to a body of water less than a mile from the home. Thankfully, the pair found the little one when they did. ABC affiliate WZZM and The Independent reported that he was spotted just 50 yards from the water!

Drone operators located the boy just as Deputy Calhoun and Kuno did, and another deputy picked up and consoled the crying and cold boy. Though things could have ended much differently, the baby boy had only a few scratches.
