We had some unexpected visitors at the police department — Huggy Wuggy, Scooby-Doo, Velma, and Shaggy stopped by for a “mystery” visit. 🕵️‍♀️🐾

Apparently, Huggy Wuggy(Brody)was “rehabilitating his image,” Scooby(baby Bennett)was sniffing for snacks, Velma(Cheyenne) was trying to solve the case of the missing stapler, and Shaggy(Officer Spencer)was just here for moral support (and donuts). 🍩😂
Then- just when we thought things couldn’t get any weirder—a mysterious 6 and 7 showed up. No idea who they were with…but we’re keeping an eye on them. No mysteries unsolved, no arrests made—-just another “ruff” day at the office!!
