Police Pooches: making us proud We are always very proud when one of our dogs is accepted as a Police Dog. Not only do they get the chance to do what they love best for the rest of their lives, but they also prove that rescue dogs can achieve the same amazing levels of training that dogs bred to do this work can, regardless of breed or background. We would like to thank PC Lee Webb for his passion in promoting rescue dogs, and the Staffordshire Police Force for taking on their first Staffie Drugs dog from us. Cooper came to us because his owner couldn’t cope with his exciteability and strength and this had developed in to very unruly behaviour. He was a very frustrated boy! Animal care supervisor Sue channelled this into searching for a ball, and he has now completed his training and loving every minute of it!
