Furry Friends to the BCSO Force

The Bristol County Sheriff's office welcomed two new members to the force on Thursday. According to NBC 10 in Providence, Jack and Hero will serve as the team's newest comfort dogs as part of the Office's new Bristol County Comfort Dog Coalition. Officials say the dogs' job will be to comfort individuals in need after stressful and traumatic situations. Jack and Hero are still in training but once completed, they will be taken to local schools, hospitals, summer camps and more. Officials said the two will also be on scene to provide comfort at fires and other incidents.
