A two-year-old Labrador has been sworn in as a ‘comfort dog’ in the US – but the ceremony did not quite go as planned.
The dog, named Pilot, was sworn in as a victim assistance K9 in Colorado on Wednesday.
Pilot will assist victim advocate Debbie Doyle at the Douglas County Sheriff’s Department in comforting crime victims.
