Suffolk Constabulary is hosting the 2011 National Police Dog Trials.
2011 will see the trials being hosted in the Eastern Region for the first time in its 51-year history.
The trials will see the country’s most highly skilled and experienced dog handlers and dogs from police forces across the UK competing for the overall title of ‘National Police Dog Champion'.
Competitors qualify for the competition after progressing through regional trials, which take place in March. The three-day national trials put competitors through tough exercises, which test a wide range of abilities that are used on a daily basis in helping to tackle crime.
