'Frontliner' dog accompanies officials patrolling Pasay barangay amid quarantine

Netizens are applauding this barangay police dog who has been helping out officials in the frontlines amid the enhanced community quarantine in Luzon.

Volunteer worker Perlita Hermanos Saldo shared photos of the dog, named Wacky, who accompanied officials as they handed out relief goods and secured the area in Barangay 132 M. Dela Cruz in Pasay City.

Wacky even wears an ID that proudly declares him, Wacky del Rosario, as a barangay police dog, with the message "#StaySafe" and "StayAtHome."

He was even wearing a facemask!
