🦆🚓 Waddle we have here? 🚓🦆

Today, one of our officers had the pleasure of meeting some very special members of the community—therapy ducks! Sgt. Smedo spent some time getting to know these feathered friends, who bring comfort and smiles wherever they go.

We’re always grateful for the unique ways our community supports one another—and this visit definitely brightened our day!

Mario and Luigi had a vistor today 💙
