KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Lenexa Police Department has added a four-legged companion to its ranks.

Officer Lexi Blue, a three-month-old Goldendoodle, will serve as a comfort dog for fellow officers, as well as the community.

She will put her best paw forward working with crime victims and victims of traumatic events, while also taking part in education visits and community functions, the department said in a Facebook post.

This very good girl will meet the public in her first pawtrol on Tuesday, June 29, at the Lenexa Farmers Market.
