Secret missions of SORT dogs

Looks can be deceiving. Felix and Tino appear to be two ordinary police officers – in the canine realm of policing – but Felix the German Shepherd and Tino the Belgian Malinois lead secret lives and participate in secret police exercises.
Felix and Tino are currently the only two police dogs operating in the Special Operations Response Team (SORT) led by Supt Roger Alexander.
“We work on special SORT assignments and support other police exercises that require SORT assistance,” says Officer A, Felix’s handler.
Raising a hard-working police dog
FORCING the canine police into a confession appeared to be impossible.
“We have to believe that all the puppies we’re raising are going to become police dogs,” said Cpl Shane Chase, the head trainer of the police Canine Section’s dogs. He is also in charge of the section’s new puppy-raising programme.
“We can’t have a favourite puppy. We love them all,” Chase insisted.
All the canine officers in the puppy programme nodded in agreement – but when Ati appeared, wrapped in Cpl Premnath Maharaj’s arms, they caved.
“We all love Ati. She is a survivor,” they said.
