RPD Kez

What was Kez’s career like?

“Kez secured 126 arrests, found nine high-risk missing people and recovered more than £100,000 worth of goods. PD Kez hit the ground running in her policing career, securing four prisoners and finding evidential property within two weeks of becoming licensed in November 2018.”

What was Kez like as a police dog?

“Her successes include recovering £50,000 of stolen electronic goods following a commercial burglary, finding £15,000 of tack and equestrian equipment after a break-in at a stables, and tracking two armed men who had tried to break into an address, following them across a river and through gardens to successfully detain one man and also locate weapons discarded by the pair.”

What is your proudest moment?

“She also saved a missing elderly man’s life after tracking in difficult conditions to find him stuck in undergrowth, hypothermic and injured after falling down a bank. Due to the cold, wet weather, the man would almost certainly have died without her.”

Why is the Foundation important?

“The Foundation is incredibly important in supporting retired police dogs who aren’t afforded the same protection and insurance in their retirement as pet dogs.”
