LONDON (Reuters) - Police in Scotland have set up a Web site to allow the public to meet their newest, and cutest, recruit as he learns how to sniff out criminals.
A six-week-old jet-black puppy with no name has been given his own online diary as he prepares to begin his new career with Tayside Police.
Officers said the puppy, one of a litter of seven, has attracted huge interest since he was unveiled as the forces latest crime-fighting weapon.
The dogs new handler, Constable Mike Keenan, said: "The benefits of using German Shepherds are that they are generally very loyal and hard working, as well as being intelligent."
Keenans wife Jennifer has asked pupils from St Ninians Primary School in Dundee to come up with a name for the puppy.
