Dog transforms from stray to bomb-sniffing K9

DENVER, Colorado (KTRK) -- She used to live on the streets, but now, a Colorado dog has a very important mission.

Karma has joined the Denver County Sheriff's Office as a bomb-sniffing dog.

Deputy Patrick Hynes was actually looking for a new K9 partner. Around the same time, residents found the Belgian Malinois roaming the streets.

Fate brought the two together and they now work as a team, sniffing for possible bombs.

Deputy Hynes says she's a perfect fit for her new role and he wouldn't have anyone else with him.
