Our Scanners Used to Check Horses and Dogs

A Cocker Spaniel was stolen from the Ragley area of South Warwickshire at the beginning of the week. We’ve been looking out for it and today spotted the pictured Spaniel matching the description at Stratford upon Avon Park and Ride.
Unfortunately she wasn’t the one that had been stolen. However, our officers from the Rural Crime Team brought a 31 year old male from Lincolnshire in for questioning. This was in relation to suspected breach of a court imposed Animal Disqualification Order.
Following interview the male was reported for an offence of breaching the order and the Spaniel was seized. She’s been taken into kennels to be looked after and we will be applying to Magistrates’ for a retention order.
We also used our animal scanner at the Park and Ride to confirm that a horse and various other dogs belonging to different people were in order.
