BU’s new comfort dog, five-month-old Bean (bottom left), and seven other dogs from her training group thrilled visitors thronging to Agganis Arena to meet them on April 25. The group, Golden Opportunities for Independence, encourages such events because they’re not only fun for the community, but great training for the animals as Community Resource Dogs. Keeping an eye out at right is Leo, a Newton Police Department service dog.
