Sandy Rips Through Sparta Home
The devastation from Hurricane Sandy in Hopatcong and Sparta ranged from power outages to homes completely destroyed. Unfortunately this home on the 700 Block of West Shore Trail Sparta saw the worst of the damage, when the storm's ferocious winds on Oct. 29 caused a large tree to uproot and crash on to the home. Three homes were destroyed in Hopatcong as well. To see more pictures of Sparta damage visit the original post: http://patch.com/A-zgXj

The reason it takes at least a year to train a K-9 and going out of state for certifications, always making sure he stayed on track( no pun) all the time. Really it is a full time job,well worth it,but still alot of work. You have to be a very dedicated person, like detective Luciani was. He was to us a beloved family member, but still did his job. we miss him everyday.

I agree with as many puppies that are brought to Hopatcong pound there is one of them who is worthy of becoming a K-9 dog. Granted he would never replace Rosco in your hearts but he or she could at least carry on the good works Rosco did. It benefits all around, a job is filled and a pup gets a chance to live on a happy productive life and some joy is brought to a lot of peoples hearts.
