The Devon and Cornwall Police Facebook post says "Puppy walkers are a vital part of our police dog training programme. They help expose the puppies to as many day-to-day situations and environments as possible during the time they're with them. We're currently looking for new puppy walkers to take puppies into their homes for a period of 12 months until they go to their new handlers for their initial police dog course. Potential puppy walkers should ideally have experience of looking after a large boisterous dog and should have the time to look after the dog 24/7. We kindly ask that puppy walkers DO NOT have any other dogs in their home. Our dogs are highly driven, determined working dogs which is why we need someone with experience of dogs like this. Puppies should never be left alone for over two hours at a time. We also run fortnightly training and development sessions. They're voluntary and are usually run from Exeter or Plymouth. Any puppy walkers should have a car to transport them to training sessions and should also have a fully enclosed garden. If you're up for the challenge, please email our Canine Development Officer Paul Glennon at glenno1954@icloud.com with a brief outline of your circumstances, address, contact number and any previous experience of looking after dog(s). Please don't be disheartened if you don't hear anything back immediately! We usually get a lot of interest which means a lot of emails to go through"
