Dog of the week is Yoda. When Pc Wes unleashes the force this beautiful dog can reach light speed in seconds. One Luke at his beautiful face though and you'll see he will never fly Solo. No Jedi mind games needed to get some likes and retweets for this boy.

I am sure you would want to wish PD Crank a long and happy retirement 🐾. PD Crank began his career in 2017 until the present day, initially serving with PC Mark and then PC Tom. Crank has served with distinction and now it’s time to put his paws up🐾🐾 at PC Toms .
