An emotional reunion between a retired police dog and her former handler was captured on camera. The 8-year-old German Shepherd named Wangwang had worked as a sniffer dog at security checkpoints in Xichuan county, China before retiring in June 2019. She was subsequently adopted by a new family, while her handler continued working as a patrol officer. However, when the officer was patrolling in Wangwang’s neighborhood, he decided to pay her a surprise visit and the heartwarming moment caused the dog to cry tears of joy.

“Wangwang’s hair is turning white but she is well-fed, she is getting fat,” the Douyin post reads. “It is always hard to bid farewell to your buddy.”
