K-9 officer was more than just a partner

EAST BERNARD - He started life as the dog nobody wanted. Too wild and too hard to handle.
Unless he was adopted, he would be put down.

But Foster's fate changed when a trainer stumbled across the hyper-active Labrador at a local animal shelter.
That began the transformation of Foster from a dog described as so crazy he could never be placed in a home, into a savvy, highly trained, obedient police dog.
"Only one in 50 dogs have the right stuff to do this kind of work," dog trainer Jack Richards of Privileged Pets in Katy said about the dog he found in a shelter.
"And I've heard people say that it's more like one in 100."
On Friday, the Wharton law enforcement community will gather at a special service to remember the K-9 officer who died in a tragic accident earlier this week.
Foster was hit and killed by an 18-wheeler Monday evening when he and his partner, Wharton County deputy constable Daryl Maretka, were at a routine traffic stop on U.S. Highway 59, near the Colorado River in the Wharton area.

Its a felony to hit or harm a police dog in active service.
Wounder what the law is against hitting one on the road?
