Today we had the absolute pleasure of meeting TPD Sid 🖤
Sid is now 11 weeks old and will begin his training to become a specialist search dog when he reaches 14 weeks! He definitely put a smile on all our faces on this very wet Thursday. 🐾

Scottie is rocking his Batman mask after somehow injuring his eyelid in his stable yesterday.
He’s had 2 stitches put in it by our vets from Leahurst and is recovering well.
Thank you to the vets and our groom on duty for noticing it straight away! #StandTall #PHScottie

Hunter’s got a new set of swallow chicks in his stable!
Since this video was taken yesterday they have been having flying lessons around his stable. This will be our last lot of chicks till they return next year.

A little throwback to 2022 when Teddy first arrived!

He was such a cuddly kitten back then. Now as a 4 year old he is far too cool and grown-up for cuddles… and if you do get the pleasure of one, it’s always on his terms!

Exercise is always better with friends, as Hunter and Beau found out today!

Our horses and officers are trained to ride and lead, giving our officers the flexibility to dismount if needed out on patrol.

#ThrowBackThursday to 2020 when we celebrated Jake and Major's 21st birthday!

As always, Jake was the golden boy—patient, polite and perfectly behaved.

Major, on the other hand... well... he was just being Major. 😂🤦‍♀️

It’s been a busy week for Arnie, Oxberry, Brego, Owen, Silver & Arnie who have been patrolling The Open Golf!

Brego is keeping his “VIP” pass for his memory box.

A big thank you to GMP and Lancs Mounted Sections for their support during this busy week.
