(CNN) A 4-month-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is now a Florida sheriff's office "Deputy Dog" after being rescued from an alligator that dragged him underwater. The Lee County Sheriff's Office honored the puppy, named Gunner, in a December 8 ceremony that saw it named a "safety and security officer." "Do you swear to uphold the constitutional law for the Lee County Sheriff's Office, Gunner?" Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marceno asked Gunner during the ceremony. Gunner responded by giving the sheriff a kiss on the nose before receiving his "Deputy Dog" badge.
