Madison PD’s New Horse Named Buckets

Madison PD just added a towering new member to its Mounted Patrol: Buckets, a 9-year-old Clydesdale-Thoroughbred mix standing 17 hands tall, who’s already been patrolling since earlier this year. Calm, curious, and perfectly suited for community outreach and big events like football games and block parties, Buckets earned his badge with a nod to retired detective John Sheskey — nicknamed “Buckets” for his Navy seasickness — whose daughter pinned his official badge during a ceremony. He joins a seasoned team including Bubba, Torres, and others, proving that even four-legged officers bring heart and hoofbeats to public service.
