A UK police force has become the first in the country to offer pensions for retired police dogs.
Crime-fighting canines will be rewarded with up to £1,500 each
under the Nottinghamshire Police scheme.
Previously, ex-police dogs received no contributions towards their upkeep
and would be kept by their handlers as pets or rehomed.
The payouts will cover treatments for the highly-trained animals, including vet’s bills, worming, vaccinations and kennel fees.
Let us support spreading of this plan world widely!
