💥Saka has had a busy few shifts this week helping locate & detain three suspects on a burglary spree breaking into multiple properties in Exminster attempting to steal high value vehicles before garden hoping trying to hide & then tracking to a suicidal female on a cliff edge💥

Albert helped officers with arrest attempts on a prolific burglar who previous escaped by garden hopping. Albert was there when the escaper tried to garden hop again. Albert gave him a very vocal challenge at which point he tried to hide in the garden and was arrested by officers

Police called to a firearms incident which drew a large crowd that became hostile towards Police. PD Nero dispersed the crowd to a safe distance. The presence of Nero ensured the safety of officers/public, a safe working area and prevented further disorder between the crowd. 🐶🐾

Happy Birthday Big Man 🐶🧁 I don’t have the words to describe just how special this boy is- I just can’t believe he’s 4 already!
Wishing PD Bill a happy 4th Birthday! Lately he helped with a nuisance male who was trying to steal items from a shop and being aggressive towards the staff! Bill arrived and the male became more aggressive and offered violence! He then tried to run but Bill quickly detained him!

Jasper has been educating students and has carried out ‘Pubs against Drugs’ Ops, 6 persons dealt with for class A & B drug possession and evidence being collected for a licensing review of a premises. Albert also found two separate high risk missing persons who are now safe 🐾🐾

HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🥳🐾💙🩷 A big Happy Birthday to all of the F litter! We all hope you’re enjoying some nice treats today and having some fun in the water cooling down☀️ Here’s Finni and brother Freddy 🐾 also in the litter are Fozzy, Flint, Floyd, Flo, Fendi, Fraya and Frankie 🌈


Albert enjoyed a quick shower to cool off mid walk this morning, the only downside was having to get out to continue the walk 🐶🚿🙈
💥Pursuit of a suspected cloned motorcycle driving dangerously in Totnes before it was found dumped nearby ….Saka arrived tracking from the bike into woodland to the male who broke from his hiding place trying to outrun Saka but quickly found out four legs are faster than two💥

PD Nero called in to help with a missing young person after concerns they were going to end their life. Neros handler spotted the person, who ran on seeing police. Nero put his nose to work, tracking along the road and up a driveway, finding the missing person hiding behind a van

PD Albert deployed to detain a male running from police, he wisely chose to comply. PD Jasper was then tasked to search the route the male had took. Jasper indicated on a 2nd male who was searched and arrested for possession class A drugs and an offensive weapon in a public place

💥Burglary on a rural farm where one of the offenders makes off in a vehicle leaving his mate to run off on foot! Saka tracked through farm yards, woodland & fields finding stolen items & then not one but two males hiding in dense undergrowth out of sight from @NPASSouthWest !💥

💥Overnight residential burglary .... Saka tracked from the property through streets & lanes locating stolen items hidden in bush before tracking on further locating a male who thought it would be wise to try & out run the dog despite multiple warnings but wasn't quick enough !💥

Well done Ben and Enzo who are based out of Ashburton and cover the South Devon area 🐾🏆
Ben Bowen & his 4 year old Police dog Enzo have been crowned the Reserve National Police dog champions at the recent National Police dog trials hosted by West Mids Police. They missed out on being the overall champions by 1 point. Somehow I think ‘They will be back’ 👏👍
After two males were arrested for Affray in the Plymouth city centre, PD Finni was called in to assist in trying to locate the weapons used in the offence. Finni put her nose to work in a busy area and found all of the weapons involved. This is important for the investigation 🐾

PD Nero handler stopped 2 males on an e-bike in the early hours. Nero deployed who stopped them from running! After searches, they were found in possession of items used to steal bikes. After enquiry’s the £3k bike was stolen in a burglary! Bike returned to a very happy owner 🐾

PD Finni assisted officers after a male ran from an address and wanted for a domestic assault and theft. Finni arrived and tracked along a woodland path not far from the address, she has then located the male hiding behind a wall and tree. One in custody and female safeguarded 🐾
