Sniffer Dogs UK & International is a charitable organisation whose aim is to provide funding to any or all UK Police Forces, for the specific purpose of procuring and training the numbers of Detection and General Purpose dogs they require, to bring their Dog Units up to full operational strength. And to provide funding to train Police Dog Handlers up to Instructor level, where necessary, to acquire and disseminate that expertise among their own Units. And to raise public awareness of the vital work that the Police Dog Units carry out on a daily basis. Furthermore, to provide a similar service to Search & Rescue K9 Units across the UK.

It costs only £4000 to procure and train a dog to fully operational standard, takes only 8-12 weeks to achieve, and they work on average for 6-7 years. A very small price to pay to support the vital work of the UK Police Dog Sections. Help us, to help them keep us all safe.

for tracking down Derrick Bird.
Due to current government cuts to Police Budgets across the UK, most of the Dog Sections are struggling to replace their retiring dogs, and keep these frontline units at fully operational strength. This places all of us at greater risk than ever before. Fewer Police Dogs mean fewer detections, fewer search apprehensions, fewer convictions, and fewer finds of both drugs and more importantly, explosives.
