GREENVILLE, N.C. — The Greenville Police Department said a cute little Pit Bull puppy is being hailed a hero for sniffing out a loaded gun on Tuesday.
According to police, the puppy, Ryder had dug up a fully loaded 38 special revolver wrapped in a t-shirt at an apartment complex in North Carolina.
"It's not every day a puppy sniffs out a fully loaded gun, but that's exactly what happened Tuesday," police said.
Officers were able to safely unloaded the weapon and said it's now stored in property and evidence.
"There's a good chance little Ryder may have prevented a tragedy...she certainly prevented the gun from winding up in the wrong hands," police said.
Looks like there might a career in law enforcement for little Ryder!
