PC Pup reporting for duty, sergeant
THIS fluffy alsatian puppy may look cute – but he could be a weapon against crime.
West Yorkshire Police launched a breeding programme in 2006, and hopes are high that 11 puppies – nine four-week-old german shepherds plus two labradors – unveiled in Wakefield this week will have the right temperament and attitude.
Inspector Lorna Meredith said: “Before, for every 100 dogs that people gave us, maybe one would make it. But now most of these dogs will end up operational.”
