Golden retriever retrieves pucks before Caps game

A golden retriever had his chance to shine on the ice before Saturday’s Washington Capitals game in D.C.

The dog played fetch on the ice with a police officer, running and sometimes slipping, down the ice to get pucks tossed down rink, the NHL posted.

The first run went a little haywire when the unnamed dog wasn’t able to stop until he crashed into the boards, but the rest of the game seemed to go smoothly once he figured out his footing.
