“The Westport Police Department is excited to announce Barry the Dog has joined the rank and file as our Comfort Dog. Officer Kyle Fernandes (Barry’s Hooman) will be his handler.

We would like to thank Eric Letendre’s Dog Training School for working with Officer Fernandes and Barry the Dog in preparing them to take and pass the American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen Test. Eric was gracious enough to provide all the training free of charge!!!

Barry the Dog will be out and about at community events, the Council on Aging, and visiting the Westport Community Schools. If you see them out and about, be sure to stop by and say hello. Barry LOVES belly rubs!”-Westport Police Department.
