Well done that dog !

Young and promising hound - nice one.

Give him a good boy drop, the dog not the policeman!

I love how they turn into nice dogs into demonic, scary killing machines and then back to nice dogs. They do excellent work and are sometimes referred to as Landsharks.

You just can't beat a good GSD.

Only one choc drop cupid - half a dozen at least!

Indeed. Quite impressed the suspect outran a dog for an hour too!

Pixie...the suspect was quite skinny....I am not sure I could have outrun the hound to the end of the street !

[albaqwerty]

obviously the idiots down the years haven't learned that you do NOT, ever, mess with police pooches nor their handlers.

Well done to both of them !!

Mikey - I love Big Hairy Germans such as the ones that the Police use.

This is how it all begins ......

They could have moved the camera nearer the action but it gives you an idea of the PD's capabilities.

Indeed, well done to the dog & handler :-)

Dogs are amazing.

[marval]

Well done that dog, and his handler.

Having thought about this - two miles in an hour?

The guy was making some effort in losing the dog - aka a furry exocet.
