Nuremberg (dpa / lby) – A happy ending for dog and owner: After a police officer took care of his male dog for a few days, a former prisoner is now reunited with his pet. The 62-year-old was unable to pay a fine and had to go to prison for forty days, the police said. After his February 19 arrest at Nuremberg Central Station, a police officer offered to look after his three-year-old dog.
A distant acquaintance has now heard about the case through the media and has paid the required fine. The 62-year-old was released. On Friday, the owner picked up his mongrel male from the federal police station in Nuremberg. “Odin” literally freaked out when he was back with his master, said the 35-year-old police officer who took care of the dog.
