The country’s most popular new police officer is making waves on social media with his stubby legs, wide grin and wagging tail.

Breaking stereotypes, Fu Zai is ready to sniff out trouble as China’s first police dog of this breed.

The adorable corgi, after making his debut recently at the open day event held at a police camp in the city of Weifang, went viral thanks to the iconic smiley face, cute “little short legs” and outstanding skills in bomb searching.

Fu Zai showed unique advantages and consistently excelled as an “A-student” during his initial training days.

Despite being listed as a reserve police dog, Fu Zai still shoulders a substantial workload, engaging in training sessions that include obedience exercises, bomb searches and scent tracking.

Following four months of training, Fu Zai is now capable of crawling directly under vehicles for investigations, or smoothly entering narrow indoor spaces by taking advantage of his short legs and tiny body shape. — Xinhua
