Woopets info: what does adopting a reformed police dog involve?
The adoption of a retired police dog, whether it is retired, unfit for service, or its former dog handler cannot accommodate it, is generally carried out in exchange for good care, that is to say: free of charge. This approach can be carried out with specialized associations, or, as is the case with Tazzthanks to the services of the National Police.
-
Priority is given to the dog handler. This is the type of adoption that most often takes place, around the dog's 9th birthday.
-
In the event that the dog handler cannot keep it (for example, in the event of its death), adoption is open to a new family, adapted and selected either by the National Police and its former brigade, or by an association which takes over.
-
There are no costs associated with this adoption. Dogs are placed in good care (except for a possible contribution to costs and health check) in the event that this takes place through an organization.
-
A period of familiarization is required so that the dog can get used to its new life and home.
-
These dogs are balanced, but their education and the rigor of their former work mean that the adopter can manage them.
-
Very attached to humans, they need a real daily presence.
