9/1 8:20AM Update: the owner contacted us as a result of this post and the family is back together ‼️

🚨 FOUND DOG (PLEASE SHARE) 🐾

This little old man doesn’t know where his owners are, and we’d really like to change that. 💔

He was found wandering around Harris Street near the Coventry/West Warwick town line.

Just look at that face. 🥹❤️ We know somebody out there is missing this handsome guy.

📞 If you know this dog or his owners, please contact Coventry Animal Control at 401-822-9106.

Let’s get this old man back where he belongs. 🏠🐶❤️

We get it. You’re feeling a certain kind of way today. It was a big day. You’ve spent the last five or six years keeping them safe, keeping them close, and now they’re gonna start to do it on their own.

But just remember, it’s because of YOU that they’re ready!

🎉CONGRATULATIONS to everyone starting Kindergarten today. You should be so proud of yourself‼️

And parents, get yourself that special coffee you’ve been thinking of. You’ve earned it! ☕️🥳

In light 🚦of yesterday’s responses, we’ll be keeping an extra eye on our intersections and these so-called “pink” lights 🧐

Drive safe and STOP ON RED 🛑

And on behalf of Dozer, “Slow the shell down!” 🐢

If red means STOP 🛑
And green means GO ✅
Then yellow means…🚦

Today, Coventry Police and our Animal Control Officers responded to the area of Plainfield Pike for a report of a tortoise attempting to cross the roadway.

Upon arrival, officers located the subject, later identified as Dozer, making his way across the roadway at a speed best described as “eventually.”

The investigation determined that Dozer’s reason for crossing Plainfield Pike was to meet ACO McCormick! Dozer is an apparent fan of our social media wizardry and has heard of him before. 😬

The public should be advised that no citations were issued for jaywalking, operating below minimum speed, or reckless strolling. He made a hard case for himself after providing a slow and deliberate argument.

It has been a wild ride lately here at Coventry PD, with animals of all shapes, sizes, and speeds requiring our assistance. And while we may not truly know what prompted 🐢 Dozer’s journey, we can confirm that he is doing just fine and back with his owner.

Perhaps he was having a midlife crisis at age 40. 🤷‍♂️

Whatever the case, it was nice meeting you, Dozer. 💙🐢

Oh, and Dozer had one last message to the motorists passing him on RT 14…”SLOW THE SHELL DOWN‼️”

It’s always great to meet new friends on the Coventry Greenway‼️

Whether you’re biking, walking, or trotting 🏇along, be sure to stop and give a HELLO, HOW ARE YAH 👋 to our officers!

Our bike patrol unit 🚲👮‍♂️ is also out right now, keeping an eye on things. Have a great day, Coventry!

So, let’s just say a black bear happened to go skinny-dipping in someone’s backyard pool….🐻🌊

It has been a little hot and humid as of late, so not saying we could blame a fella.

But inquiring minds want to know…did it use the BEAR-y paddle or the PAW-stroke? 🐻 🏊‍♀️
