A pit bull rescued as a puppy from a suspected Canadian dogfighting operation is now serving as a K-9 with a North Carolina sheriff's office.
The Craven County Sheriff's Office says K-9 Nibbles has completed Police Canine School.
K-9 Nibbles, who was one of 31 pit bull puppies seized from a suspected dogfighting operation in Canada in 2015, is now out patrolling Craven County as a narcotics dog, WCTI reports.
Officials say at least four of the dogs rescued from that operation now serve in law enforcement, and others are certified service dogs.
