Police patrol pony Ringo is reporting for duty!
Ringo share smiles with Virginia Tech students on campus, allowing the department to spread important information.“I feel that if he can be a stress reliever and bring joy during difficult times then he earns his hay,” Ringo’s owner Leslie Gregg said.“We happened to run into someone on campus that was overseeing the Virginia Tech Police Department and she said, ‘Oh my gosh, I’ve fallen in love with this pony. I’d love to have you come and be a part of our program,’” Gregg said.
The police department said the pony is a natural when it comes to crime prevention. And with his booties and a diaper, he’s suited for all terrains. “They’ll ask, ‘Why do you have a police patrol pony?’ And of course, our answer is, ‘Why not?’ And it makes people happy and it promotes our programs and services,” Tarter said.
