NEW YORK — The American Kennel Club (AKC) Museum of the Dog has launched a special exhibit documenting the service of NYPD K-9s through photography, an AKC press release states.

The “Dogs that Serve” exhibit, which opened March 13 and will remain open through May 5, showcases the work of Margaret Foxmoore, who has been photographing the NYPD Transit Bureau K-9 Unit for six years, according to the release.

“My objective with this collection of photos is to bring to light the heroism that these officers and their K-9s put on display every day in this city and beyond and to humanize those behind the badge,” said Foxmoore. “This exhibit is truly not about me; it’s about them.”

The exhibit features photos of K-9s at work with their handlers and also serves to honor Ret. Lieutenant Commanding Officer John Pappas, who retired this past fall after 27 years in the NYPD, according to the release. Pappas founded the Transit K-9 Unit in 2005. His partner, K-9 Palla, the highest-ranking K-9 in NYPD history, will have her harness on display during the exhibition.

“I sincerely hope that the exhibit may inspire coming generations to be K-9 handlers and to work together with their dogs to achieve great things,” said Pappas. “The bond between a pet and its family is strong, but the bond between a police K-9 handler and his canine partner, is one of the strongest bonds between human and animal in existence. My partner and I will forever be inseparable.”
