Tiny Pomeranian Defies Expectations to Become a Police Tracking Dog

Few people would look at Haku and immediately imagine a police dog ready to assist with an important investigation. The tiny Pomeranian has a fluffy coat, an expressive face, and the playful energy of a beloved family pet, making him an unexpected sight beside more traditional working breeds.
