A Fond Farewell To “Chara”

January 2002

First day on the

job.

It was love at

first sight!

Gypsy became my best buddy.

Charlette put me right to work.

Sniffing lockers

and garbage cans, it’s so much

fun.

I got to be the “Star of the Show”

as Charlette tells the students

to make good choices.

A command from

Charlette to “sit” and

that’s exactly what I

do.

I’m a Good Girl!

Me & Charlette

Partners In Anti-crime.

This is my best side….

…and this is not, but the hug was good!

While checkin

g lockers

, I’m sure

not to use my paws.

No touchin

g allowed

!

Then, Gypsy retired in 2009 & she’s been

“whooping it up” ever since…

…and Kaki joined our team soon

after.

I’ll have to show her

the “ropes”

We quickly became fast friends.

She fit right in.

When Charlette calls on me, I’m always ready.

I found the firecrackers. Now I get to play with my toy. I love my job!

I love meeting

new friends. It means I get my

belly rubbed.

If you’re wondering

what I’ll be doing

after retiring, well…

…I’ll be hanging with B.F.F’s in the neighborhood…

…and laying around the house chewing on my bone…

…so don’t worry ‘bout me.

I’ll have plenty to keep me busy….

Mom’s put me in charge!

A special “Thank You” to everyone for making my 10 years at Plano ISD the best any dog could ask for.

“Hey Chara, thanks for all your good advice.”

“Good luck with retirement and don’t chase too many cats!” - Kaki

“Thanks Kaki.” “You’re top dog now.” - Chara
