U.S. Alpine skier Daron Rahlves has had a disappointing Olympics so far, but not because he missed his best friend. His Siberian Husky, Chevy, made the trip with him and was credentialed for all areas.
The plastic-sheathed pass reads "Chevy Rahlves/Skiing/Security" and includes a photo of the pooch looking off into the distance, as if deep in thought.
"We thought it would be a little bit of a joke for the dog to have a pass," said USOC spokesman Cecil Bleiker. "That way he's official."
For the record: The dog's tag lets USOC security know he should be allowed into the team's hotel and office areas.

It'd be funny if he forgot his pass but Chevy had his. "I'm sorry sir, but you can't come in. However the dog can."
