After it received nearly 400 name suggestions, the Morris County Sheriff's Office named its two K-9 puppies after fallen police officers from the Dover and Mount Arlington police departments. The Sheriff's Office solicited the names from the public and after it reviewed the submissions, chose Jojo for the 5-month-old female Belgian Malinois in honor of the late Mount Arlington Police Officer Joseph Wargo and Odie for the 10-week-old male Labrador retriever to remember Dover Police Officer Arthur Ohlsen III. “I think this is an amazing tribute to my father. Both dog training 5 months my family and myself want to thank the Morris County Sheriff’s Office and everyone that voted for naming of the new K-9 puppies after him,” said Ohlsen's son Trevor Ohlsen,  a Morris County sheriff’s officer. Wargo’s widow, Amy Wargo, was also moved by the gesture and still has the two pugs she shared with her husband before his death in 2011. “This is really special. It shows that Joe has not been forgotten. He would be over the moon about it,” she said.
