Here is PD Eyke with Tom performing a perfect stand off. This is where the fleeing criminal is pursued by the dog and the criminal then gives up and surrenders. The dog is expected NOT to bite and detain the criminal until the handler arrives. 👏

TPD Eyke showed his courage tackling a very determined criminal on the weapon attack. Tom and PD Eyke won this phase of the trials ie Criminal work, agility and Obedience. They also qualified for the National Police dog trials in May.

Here is Lee and PD Drake being introduced to the judge before starting their Phase 3 ie Obedience, agility and criminal work.

We are so sorry to tell you that RPD Lady went to sleep for last time this weekend, she’d suffered a few stokes & her family decided it was time to let her go. 😢 Lady was a GP & drugs dog with great trials success, she was a star. All our love to her family & Steve RIP 💖🐾

A suspect from out of force wanted for kidnap and burglary ran from patrol officers. No problem for PD Bond who tracked and located the individual hiding in part of a derelict building. Now in custody. Top job for this lad, well done Bond. 👊🤜👊

A stop on hatchback turned into a lengthy pursuit. Their actions put officers and public lives at risk by the manner of their driving. The subject attempted to drive the wrong way on the #A30 and Tactical Contact used to #SaveLives. #Fatal5 Vision Zero South West Log928 5630/7521/6586

We received reports of a person threatening people with a knife; PD Rudi located the suspect who denied having a knife, PD Rudi went on to find said kitchen knife which the suspect had thrown into thick undergrowth. One in custody!! 🐺🐾Cornwall Police Dogs

PD Bond completed a long testing rural track to locate the driver from an RTC who had fled and hidden in woodland. Fields, yards, bridges and fences all negotiated before the intoxicated suspect was hunted down. A superb track for this young lad. The names Bond. 👏
