"Salute...Well Done Sir ...Thank you for doing your job...now that's the patrol dog speciality....no another unit can or will elect to track suspects into concealed areas especially bush or sugar cane at night."

" Good job saps and pls increase patrol around Hartswater, thagase and bonita park."

"Great work by the officer and police dog, dog needs to be promoted to next rank maybe Captain or better. This is something the K9 unit needs to look into, the dogs are doing a dynamic job but without a rank, it's time we see this change."
