A Facebook campaign launched to save the life of a dog sentenced to death took an interesting turn when police officer Lars Bo Lomholt went above and beyond the call of duty, kidnapping him from the kennel where he was being held, and rushing him away to a safehouse.
The Copenhagen Post originally reported that Thor had been kidnapped from his holding cell. At first, it was believed that the dog’s savior was impersonating a police offer as a means of disguise. Only later was it revealed that an actual animal loving member of the force had taken it upon himself to save the dog.
Anne Eklund shared the following translated version of the daring rescue on Facebook:
This Danish policeman, Lars Bo Lomholt, is A Real Man. Due to a quirk in Danish law, a new widow’s only solace, her dog, was about to be euthanized. The dog had bitten another dog, but passed the mental tests required with flying colours, and the elderly lady offered to do everything required to keep her dog. That should have been the end of the story.
The dog bitten had, however, developed an infection and that’s where the quirk in Danish law comes in. Proceedings halted and the widow’s dog was scheduled for euthanasia the next day.
Officer Lars Bo Lomholt thought that this was wrong. So wrong that he put his entire career on the line, turning up at the dog pound in his police uniform and having the doomed dog released to him that night. The dog, Thor, was taken to see a vet and then to an undisclosed location, where he is doing as well as can be expected, separated from his mummy, shortly after losing his daddy.
Officer Lars Bo Lumholt fully expects to be fired next week. A petition to save his job has been started at Care2. Thor remains safe at an undisclosed location.
Doggie ping!
Thxs, for the post..doggie ping. :-)
Good for him! Stupid socialists love killing things that are not perfect to their scale (it varies). It’s easy if you don’t have GOD’s law’s. But in our society what do you expect?
stupid liberals love killing things EXCEPT convinted murderers... how messed up is that?
innocent baby in the womb? “suck out his brain”
cop killer? “free mumia”
God will bless this Officer for what he did.
Thanks for the good post. Maybe he could move here.
You know, mass murderers often start with animals. That is what worries me about too many cops here and the protection they get from their departments and FOP.

This goes back to a court case in Chicago, in the 70’s, the prosecuting attorney new that the judge would not give the death penalty.
Keep going back to the 50’s and it left natural law for, corporate law. Ya where was that in the peoples choice,not, and it won’t be.
Inconceivable!
I must be a little slow witted...one dog bit another dog? And had to go thru mental testing? Passed, but the bitten dog got an infection so the bitee is scheduled for euthanasia?
What a world, what a world.
(good for the kidnapper!!)

The bad news is that even if he’s pardoned, he’ll never be allowed to own a firearm and he’s on the no-fly list.
*chuckle*
Thank you for posting a good cop and dog story.
