A Putnam County Police K9, usually used for accelerant detecting, took to the water of Lake Mahopac. The Sheriff's office says K9 Char found a way to beat the heat by accompanying his handler, Sgt. Lombardo, as he patrolled the lake. Char was wearing a safety vest and the Sheriff's Office encouraged people to follow the safety trend and wear their own life jacket while out on the water.
