The other night 4 policemen and women came to Scouts with 3 police dogs. They assured us that the dogs would not bite! Then we learnt all about the police equipment and duties – and Shona had to try on the police riot gear!
Abbie
was the first dog to see us and she was only 8 months old and in
training! She was very interested in all the Scouts but did not seem at
all scared of everyone.
Merlin
was the second dog, he has been in service for a while. He searches
for people and things. We hid keys, a wallet and bolt croppers and he
found them all very quickly! It was great. He is also trained to stop
people running away from the police. He even chased one of the police
men who was “running away”!
Chunky
was the last dog we met, he could sniff out drugs. The police brought
drugs that we hid round the hall and Chunky found them all very quickly.
The whole experience was amazing!
