Police dog honored with funeral

Beny, a retired police dog in Lawrenceville, Georgia was laid to rest on Thursday at a special funeral. The dog was buried in a tiny American flag-draped coffin and police officers and their K9 units paid respect. The flag was later presented to the family of Cpl. John Surowiec.

Beny helped catch a gang member accused of murder and more than 160 criminal suspects during his time on the force, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
