    A training seminar for Wellington police dogs was a "howling success" organisers say


    The events last week were hosted by internationally renowned dog handler Dick Staal .

    It was a professional development opportunity for dogs from across agencies, including police, customs, and defence, to learn from the experts.

    Defence Working Dog Manager, Alan Inkpen says it was a huge success, and offered a complete range of training from across all dog capabilities.
