Anoka Minnesota Police Dog King was the first police dog to be use effectively in the Minneapolis/St.
Paul Metropolitan Area in the 1960's.
His success led to the development of police dog units in a five state area surrounding Minnesota.
He received numerous awards for his criminal apprehensions, and a local newspaper reporter referred to him as the Rin Tin Tin of the Anoka Police Department.
Upon his death the City of Anoka named a park after him(King Memorial Park), and a lifesize was place.
