A canine cop took early  retirement after bosses at South Yorkshire Police noted his poor motivation—and a fondness for making friends with noisy drunkards, his former handier said Monday.
Buster, who spent six months as a police dog, has been  placed with a family in Sheffield, near this town in northern England, Police Constable David Stephenson said.
"He has a lack of drive and  motivation when asked to do operational work," Stephenson told The Associated Press. "He’s just a lovely pet."
Two-year-old Buster  performed well at the start of his 14-week training program, but his work  gradually deteriorated and the problem worsenedonce he started patrolling the streets, he said.
On one occasion, Buster walked straight past a suspected criminal hiding in the garden of a house late at night and went to the toilet. His handler couldn’t believe what the dog was doing.
"I searched the garden myself and found the man. The dog had walked past the spot where I found him,"Stephenson said. "You would have expected him to use his nose to locate him."
During a separate tracking operation, also in the early hours of the morning, Buster gave up while in mid-chase across a golf course. "He just stopped working," Stephenson said. "He just lay down and there was nothing we could do. He has got a very low drive for finding people."
In Rotherham at bar closing times, the streets are often crowded with drunken revellers.  "Buster was pleased when people came up to him and ate their food, instead of trying to stop potential trouble makers," his former handler said.
