Baro, a 9-year-old German Wirehaired Pointer, is retiring after years of service at the airport as an explosion detection K-9.

Party planners hid a training aid for Baro to search for and find. Once he found it, the celebration began.

Baro has been working with his handler, Lawrence Sharp, since 2017.
