On July 1, 2019; we, Grade VIII and IX, went to Police Canine Division which is located at Singha Durbar. There are 8 different types of dogs in Nepal for security.There were many dogs of different breeds like German Shepherd, Labrador, Bloodhound, etc. There are many branches in Dharan, Biratnagar, Hetauda, Pokhara, Dhading, etc.

From 2062 B.S. Police Dog Service started. The dogs give services like check on program, search drugs, search for thieves, etc. The main role of dog is VIP security. Dogs in Canine performed for us. The first performance was by a German Shepherd. Its name was Macsal. He showed us how it searched. The second performance was by a Labrador. It showed us how it finds bombs. The third performance was by a German Shepherd again. Its name was Dj. It showed us how it helped in crime investigation. The fourth performance was by a German Shepherd named Messi. It showed us how it found drugs. Likewise, the fifth performance was by a Labrador named Mario and showed us how it obeyed the commands and other basic things. And lastly, the sixth performance was by a Labrador showing how it goes through the obstacles.

After seeing all the performances, we went to look around. We saw many other dogs and horses. And then we returned to the school.
