Well so happy got some brilliant news last night. Police Scotland has a new recruit his name is Jack.

We took him in on the 23rd March this year as an 8 month old Malinois pup from a lady who had bought him as a pet !! Not a good idea these dogs need to work !! I asked her if he chewed she said no but he managed to demolish one of our big leather armchairs lol.

Soon as he came in what did i do but message Gary Nealon one of the dog handlers in our area who loves Mals, of course I knew what Gary would say which was " You still got him " and the answer was yes. So he said can we come to meet him meaning himself and Craig. ( they were down within the hour ) Then Craig came back took Jack over the field was very impressed with our boy.The rest is history Police Scotland sent all the paper work through and off Jack went with Craig on the 11th April 2017. Roughly 4 months training we are well impressed.

Best news of all he is now an Official Police Dog. Frank myself and everyone who was involved with him here are so so proud of him and Craig of course.

Frank myself and wee Alfie would like to thank our sponsors/everyone who donated prizes ect. and everyone who attended and supported us at Bark in the Park we raised £2517-67 on the day. Plus Mitch's mum and Dad couldn't make it on the day but donated £50-00 to add to the total. Thanks Val and Andrew.
