This New Rug Sat at a Sheriff’s Office for Months Before Anyone Noticed the Embarrassing Mistake on It Jan. 15, 2015 8:24am Associated Press  This image released by ABC Action News, shows the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office rug in Largo, Fla., Wednesday, Jan. 14, 2015. WFTS news reported that the new rugs at the sheriff’s administration building say “In Dog We Trust” instead of “In God We Trust.” LARGO, Fla. (AP) — The Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office in Florida has gone to the dogs. Well, at least its rugs have. Department spokeswoman Cecilia Barreda said Wednesday that a new, $500 rug at the sheriff’s administration building said “In Dog We Trust” instead of “In God We Trust.” The forest green rug with the sheriff’s yellow badge was in the entrance area for a couple of months when the error was discovered Wednesday by a deputy. Barreda says the error was made by the rug manufacturer and it’s in the process of being corrected. A second rug did not have the misprint. The rugs were rolled up and put away Wednesday. It’s not clear if the new carpet smell had worn off. __ |
