The Methuen Police Department is asking the public to help name its newest “pawciffer.”

The department is set to welcome a male English Cream Golden Retriever as part of its community-oriented policing initiative alongside Officer Kayleigh Forgetta.

The newest member of the police force still needs a name. To weigh in, the public can comment name suggestions on social media or fill out a form through Thursday.

The puppy’s name will be revealed when he arrives in Methuen, although the date of his arrival was not shared.

Then, “Officer Forgetta will schedule a special meet‑and‑greet when ‘Pawciffer [Insert Name]’ is big enough to charm you in person,” the department wrote on Facebook.

The puppy “is ready to bring smiles, tail wags, and comfort to our community,” the department wrote.
