A focused police dog named Ammo who works for the Redondo Beach K9 Team, watched intensely as his human partner Officer Kyle Lofstrom slowly wound the handle of a classic Jack-in-the-Box toy. When the top popped open and Jack appeared, Ammo wasted no time in hilariously trying to separate the pop-up toy’s head from its body.

Judging from this reaction, Lofstrom wasn’t entirely sure how Ammo felt about it.

I can’t tell if this means he likes his new toy or hates it

Here are some other photos of Ammo and Lofstrom at work.
