He was just 8 weeks old in May when he debuted as the Acton Police Department’s comfort dog. Now, Capt. Brian Goldman tells The Acton Bridge, Thor is “getting bigger by the day [and] making new friends everywhere he goes.”

He recently helped out at the police’s youth academy, and was on scene for the July 4 Picnic in the Park. On July 16, he completed his first basic obedience course. Charges of being a very good boy are pending.
