Robert sent me these links to some great videos:
Thought you might be able to make use of these videos on the site. They are tracking the progress of Cheshire Police’s new border collie puppy as he becomes a drugs detection dog.
Meet Cheshire Police’s newest recruit: Ziggy the border collie. Ziggy is nine weeks old. When he grows up he wants to be a drugs detection dog, but at the moment he is far too busy being a puppy.
In the second part of our series following our new border collie puppy, Ziggy is now 16 weeks old and is getting to grips with basic commands and searching for his toy.
In part three of the series following our new border collie puppy, Ziggy has been creating a bit of the stir in the media. He has appeared on Granada Reports and in several newspapers since we last caught up with him. But his feet are being kept firmly on the ground by his friends George and Storm.
More importantly, Ziggy is progressing very well. So well, in fact, that he is now scheduled to go on his drugs detection course this May [2010] when he will still be just nine months old. That is three months earlier than PC Alison Bowkett, his handler, had initially expected.
See if you can spot the moment Ziggy’s enthusiastic sniffing around cause him to knock into the camera tripod!
