Diagnosed with an inoperable tumor causing him to be blind in one eye, Eddie, the rescue pup, only has six to 12 months to live. But, thanks to a foster home and a police force, Eddie's last months will certainly be memorable. He's become a police K-9.

The dog, Eddie, was abandoned and spent almost a month wandering in Benton City, Washington, before he was rescued, CNN affiliate KEPR reported. Diagnosed with an inoperable tumor causing him to be blind in one eye, Eddie only has six to 12 months to live. Thanks to a foster home and Pasco Police, Eddie's last months will certainly be memorable.

His first official call was to a local autobody shop for"service to pick up property," where he received a gift basket with treats, food, and toys to take home. They even donated to his veterinarian bills. One stop was of course a local doughnut shop, because he wouldn't be a real police officer without some coffee and doughnuts. "He is just such a lover. You would never suspect that he was abused or neglected," Detective Lee said.
