You might've heard the saying, "a dog is a man's best friend"
"He was just always there"
That's what K-9 Archer was to deputy Marcus Roell. "He taught me to be a hard worker and catch bad guys that's what we do"
Not only his best friend, but his partner protecting and serving neighbors in Madison County like Derrick Sneed.

Thursday morning was a time for neighbors to remember the legacy K-9 archer left for deputy's and neighbors.
"He was crazy, he was high energy."
