Police dogs are crucial to a Police Officer's work. They carry out many essential tasks during their service as working dogs in the community. The police dog is a highly trained animal, many of which are German Shepherd Dogs. Although other breeds, such as Labradors and Spaniels, are used for their scenting abilities to locate drugs, arms and explosives. Doberman’s, Rottweilers and Weimaraners are also used for a variety of purposes.

Police dog handlers must be prepared to exercise and care for the dog whilst off duty. All police handlers need to be experienced police officers because you need to know the operational and legal implications about what you are doing at each incident and why. Obviously, you must be confident around dogs. There is an element of running and lifting your dog over fences, often whilst wearing boots and body armour, so you must be relatively fit.
