A Portland police dog named Niko and Officer Chris Devlin, his human partner, seized 33 pounds of methamphetamine during a recent drug bust, authorities said Tuesday.

The pair, assigned to the Narcotics and Organized Crime unit, netted the haul Feb. 13 and also made one arrest, according to the Portland Police Bureau.

Police estimate the stash to have a street value of $750,000, the bureau said. They did declined to provide additional information about the bust, citing an ongoing criminal investigation.

Niko is a different crime-fighting canine than Nikko, who worked the narcotics beat in Portland for years before dying of cancer in 2015.

During his storied 7-year career, Nikko helped seize 215 pounds of cocaine, 246 pounds of methamphetamine, 86 pounds of heroin and 2,600 pounds of marijuana, altogether worth $39.7 million, police said.
