The Pascagoula Police Department marked National Dogs in Politics Day by promoting K9 Thor as a candidate for chief of police in a social media post.

The post listed Thor’s positions as getting more tennis balls immediately, holding Bacon Fridays, increasing the K9 budget, allowing longer breaks and shorter meetings, and placing squeaky toys in every unit. It ended with a call to vote for K9 Thor.
