Anderson Cooper just did something amazing to honor a fallen police dog

The Internet is weeping with happy and sad tears after Anderson Cooper donated a whole ton of money for an absolutely beautiful cause.

This week, the Norfolk Police Department in Virginia has been mourning the loss of Krijger, a K-9 officer who was fatally shot after he was sent to investigate a man who had barricaded himself in his house with a gun. “It is with heavy hearts we announce the loss of a loyal and dedicated member of the Norfolk Police Department,” the NPD wrote in a Facebook post honoring Krijger. “. . . He served NPD for three years and faithfully gave his life to protect ours. Rest in peace, Krijger. Your work is done, but never forgotten.”
