A Texas family made their beloved dog Charlie's last day one to remember.

Charlie's owner, Kevin, said he always believed she would be a great police dog. He even tried to train her from YouTube videos when she was young.

But this week, a veterinarian told the family that Charlie had a tumor in her brain. The family had to make the tough decision to put their dog down.

So on Charlie's final day, the Navid family took her out to get a burger and ice cream, they even let her wash it down with a rib-eye steak from a nearby restaurant. And when they saw a police officer at the park, they couldn't pass up an opportunity to take a picture.

"I don't think it was a coincidence he was there," Kevin told WFAA.

The officer posed for a photo with Charlie and the Denton Police Department shared it on Facebook, dubbing Charlie its newest K-9 officer, fulfilling a lifelong dream for the Navid family.

"When I saw those photos I just thought there is my Charlie. She's a K-9 officer all these years later," Kevin said.
