Happy retirement to the amazing, award winning PD Amber! After almost 9 years in Tayside division, saving lives and catching baddies, this 2 X Scottish champ, and 3 X National Police Dog Trials rep, (UK's most obedient dog!) now retires by her handlers side for new adventures.

Time to hang up the harness for wee #PDEddie, as he now becomes #RPDEddie. Almost 10 years of #KeepingPeopleSafe across the country, he’s now retiring to live at home with his handler. Enjoy the long lies….Thanks pup! 👏🏻 #RetiredPSOSDogs #SprockerSpaniel

After a stolen vehicle was pursued by @PSOSRoads after a housebreaking, they caught 3 suspects 😁 . #PDNinja then started looking for a 4th one who had "given it legs". Unfortunately for them, she put her nose down, tracked through woodland & located them hiding. Result!👏

After report of a single car RTC, but no driver with it, #PDEli was called in. She picked up a track, went through numerous fields and then searched a woods. She found the naughty driver hiding under a tree. He had no licence, insurance & failed a road side breath test. Arrested!

#PD Paco got to play this week after some suspected drug dealers made off in a car and crashed it in Inverness. 2 men "gave it legs" but PD Paco led his leash holder straight to them hiding in some bushes near a train line. After Paco "had a chat" they wisely gave up. 👏 👏

Tracing a vulnerable person in Oct'24 @PSOSArgyllBute led to #PDBud & handler receiving @RoyalHumane Society award for their efforts in saving a life. PDs are invaluable at incidents like these & continuously show their worth alongside their handlers. 👏🏻 👏🏻 #WhatWeTrainFor

Say hello to #TPDRocket our newest recruit in Aberdeen. Rocket is an 8 week old Malinois and he's a confident, fun and energetic wee dog. You'll likely see him around the North East being socialised and learning how to be a #PolisDug so say hello if you see him. #PupFest

It was a great chance for #PDOdin and his handler to meet the public in support of the @The_NFRSA in Perth last weekend. Looks like Odin enjoyed the chance to help (or the tasty treats). The NFRSA kindly support many of our dogs and handlers in their retirement.👏 #WorthyCause

Remember #PD Duke? After gaining PD status in June, he is already proving his crime fighting worth. Duke sprung into action this week assisting colleagues in Inverness. A drink driver thought he could run and hide! Dukes keen nose soon sniffed him out. #hideandseekchamp

Meet #TPDElmo, Aberdeen Dog Units newest recruit. He's following a number of his "relatives" including PD Eva, in to a police career as a General Patrol Dog. Elmo was sourced from an Aberdeenshire based breeder and will be taught the basics by PC Warden. Wish him luck!

It's time for some #Pawsome news; meet Edinburgh Dog Units newest recruit. This is TPD Brock who's starting his training as a Detection Dog. He's a confident, funny and lively lad and his new handler is definitely being kept on their toes 🤣. #CuteAlert #WorkingLabrador
