Massive thank you to @The_NFRSA for the help and support for Charlie and RPD Rocky @northantsdogs , after he suffered a freak stomach Torsion last week. You guys are legends and without charities like yours, us handlers/owners and our furry heroes would be lost in times of need.

[NFRSA @The_NFRSA]

One week ago today - RPD Rocky from @northantsdogs and @NorthantsPolice was fighting for his life when he suffered a stomach torsion.

Vets Now worked into the small hours to save this amazing hero - and one week on, under the care of Mawsley Vets he is recovering like the champ he is.

His handler and now Dad Charlie said:

“It’s every handlers worst nightmare watching a partner suffer with a life-threatening condition. You feel helpless. But he was there for me for nearly five years and I wasn’t going to let him down. I’m so grateful to the amazing vets for saving his life.”

“The support from the NFRSA was incredible, they were there every step the way and have been every day since. Thank you to those who donate to this fantastic charity, who have the backs of our beloved retired dogs - you have no idea what it means to every handler, knowing we have you all at our side.’

Thanks to you, we helped cover Rocky’s vets bill with a gift of £3,750 - and we will continue to be there if he needs us again.

As our Global Ambassador @P_Wicks01 says: “These heroic animals have given us so much - it’s important we give them the safe retirement they deserve.”

We couldn’t agree more - and it’s precisely what we do at the NFRSA.

We’ve got you Rocky. X

Well done sis! Taught you everything you know 😉 🐕🦈

[Northants Police Dog Section @northantsdogs]

Last night PD Pyper attended a high value cable theft where the suspects ran off before she got there. She tracked for over an hour, around 5km through bushes, brambles and flooded fields to find both suspects wet and tired, and now in custody… Great work Pyper!

[Retired Police Dog Gru @RPD_Gru]

@The_NFRSA Taught her everything she knows 🤣...well done sis!! 💪🏼

[Retired Police Dog Gru @RPD_Gru]

@The_NFRSA @LPTrustUK This is heartbreaking 💔 but at the same time, what a life Murphy lived. Full of love and duty!

Sleep well Murphy, chase your favourite ball and watch over your humans 💙

Merry Christmas from PD Pyper and PD Coco who are keeping you safe on nightshift tonight. And from all of us at Northants Police Dog Section 🐶🎄🎅🏽

[Retired Police Dog Gru @RPD_Gru]

Nice cold Christmas Day, morning walk, after the kids opened their presents! I can't wait for my Xmas dinner later!! Coco and Pyper get one too, before they go on a Nightshift tonight! 💙 🐕

[Retired Police Dog Gru @RPD_Gru]

@Billsdotter2 @northantsdogs It's for safety, you don't want a massive space, as we can slide about and injure ourselves, on blue light runs. The pods are specially designed with their own air con. There are national agreed, minimum dimensions and we are regularly let out for walks during the shift.

Please share and if you can, donate to help Dixie

[WAGs Retired Police Dogs @999WAGS]

We would just love @RpdDixie to be able to continue playing and having fun with her friends, which is why we are asking for donations towards her fundraiser.

RPD Dixie requires a vital stem cell top-up to keep her fit and healthy, and to make sure she keeps having fun in her retirement.

Thank you so much to everyone who has already donated, we are so grateful.
https://t.co/Co6ofdV5yA please keep pushing 🐾💙
