Romero said town officials are considering whether to hire another police chief or keep the department staffed with just one officer. He said it's unclear whether the town will keep the police dog, which had been in Armijo's care. When approached by a reporter from The Associated Press at his Vaughn home, Armijo said he had no comment, and he declined to grant access to the canine for photographs or video. The dog's kennel could be seen in Armijo's backyard, and a police truck marked "K-9" was parked in his driveway. At Penny's Diner, residents said they were embarrassed by the attention the episode has put on the small town. "There's just a whole lot of nothing going on here," said cook Joyce Tabor. "We have very little crime. It's quiet. So this really doesn't matter."
