The heartwarming reunion video between Wang Wang and her former handler instantly went viral on the internet. However, it had a warning at the beginning of the clip, claiming that the video may be (quite) disturbing to some viewers.<\/p>\n

\u201cDogs are really the most loyal partners.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Additionally, when military or police dogs retire, they can be adopted by their handler only if the handler\u2019s home environment is suitable. However, if various conditions are not met, the retired police dog can be taken in through open adoption. In this way, the military or police dogs can enjoy their retirement as their age advances.<\/p>\n
