Boronia Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) I am posting this here rather than the news section as it is not precisely news The reserve on each of the pups seems to be $500 and it has been reached on every pup. maybe only well-off bidders need to apply :laugh: http://www.abc.net.a...recruit/4500444 An online auction to name new NSW puppy police recruits will be open to the public. https://auctiondesq....ain&OrgID=13194 Your chance to name a NSW Police puppy!

The puppies are listed here: http://bit.ly/12lAJ65 All proceeds go to the NSW Police Legacy, a registered Australian charity that looks after the families of deceased NSW Police Officers: http://www.policelegacynsw.org.au Background On 22nd December 2012, eight Springer Spaniel pups were born to drug detection dog, Maya. The litter of four males and four females are known as "B" Litter, which means all of their names will begin with the letter "B". One of these pups will be called Bryson, in memory of the late Detective Inspector Bryson Anderson who was killed on duty in December 2012.

Pattycake Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 But Buster's a good name for a police dog! Yeah it is...... I think you will find the list of names not to be used are already other dogs still in active service so therefore they can't have 2 dogs with the same name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
