Police Dog Can't Quite Get Used to Winter Boots

Members of the Rapid City Police Department decided to buy new snow boots for one of its team members, a police dog.

A police dog’s battle with its new snowshoes is melting hearts across the internet, thanks to an adorable viral video shared by Rapid City police.

Jary appeared to forget how to walk once the shoes were on, raising each of his legs in a comical manner as his colleagues watched in amusement.

The police pooch keeps moving his hind legs in an exaggerated fashion, lifting them way higher than necessary as he tries to get the hang of his new booties.

When an officer gives him a toy to play with and fetch, his walking improves, but only slightly.

All humour aside, officers want to remind people that pets get cold, just like humans. So, make sure to take extra precaution when taking them out into cold weather.
