If you don't mind me asking how long after joining did it take you to get the 'dream job'?

12 years...

Not to put you off though, this is the first time my private circumstances have allowed me to apply. There is and massive composition for the post though.

When I attended the recruitment event on Tuesday they said more or less the same, not a job that is easy to come by and may take time to get into but I don't think I would mind being on beat for a few years before the chance came along

Congrats, you have my dream job

I'm currently filling out the forms to join Police Scotland, quite a long process but if i end up with your job I'd be super happy

Are you talking to @Froome Dog or @CopperCyclist ?

Apropos of nothing, I spent yesterday with a bunch of coppers from the counter-terrorism unit. One was very cute...

Nice truncheon?? ... etc etc

Is he a German Shepard or a Belgian Malinois? Lovely looking dog whatever. Malinois are a bit more keen to get onto bitey training though

He has passed his initial course with flying colours, and we work our first shift together on New Years Eve!

He's a very prey driven dog rather than a defence driven dog. This essentially means that (at the moment) he's a very friendly, sociable dog. He has very high drive, so he will chase and bite when commanded/allowed. Looking forward to working with him properly!

Some pics below of him chilling in the garden in the sun, and a (low quality) night shot I got of him on Halloween!
