Is Gronk Working For The Athol MA Police Department?
Yes! But, not THAT Gronk....
According to Sportingnews.com, the Athol, Mass PD just added a one year old German Shepherd to their K-9 program. His name? Gronk!
Athol Police Chief Russell Kleber wanted to name the pooch after a Boston sports figure, and one that had a connection to the town. In February, Gronk made a charity appearance in Athol. So, it made perfect sense to name him Gronk!
Best of luck to Officer Gronk!
