'Sophisticated' K-9
units help Mass. cops

'Sophisticated' K-9 <br> units help Mass. cops BILLERICA, Mass. — Before Lt. Gordon Clark leaves his Townsend home to go to work at the Middlesex Sheriff's Office, he gets his partner out of the dog house. Lox, a 6-year-old pure bred German shepherd, has been Clark's K-9 partner in fighting crime for the past three years.

Lox is at Clark's side sniffing for drugs, weapons and missing people, as well as teaching other dogs the ropes as part of Middlesex Sheriff James DiPaola's K-9 Unit.
