Police dog Max finds missing mum and baby on first job
A police dog found a missing mother and toddler on his first operational shift.
Newly-licensed Dyfed-Powys Police dog Max discovered the pair on the edge of a ravine in a remote part of Powys on Saturday.Led by the two-year-old German Shepherd cross who joined the force in February, handler PC Peter Lloyd spotted the woman waving for help at 13:30 BST.Insp Jonathan Rees-Jones said:"The woman had not been seen or spoken to for two days, which was out of character, and her phone wasn't working, so naturally concern for her safety was high.
He said the woman's car had been found on a mountain road which gave officers a location to search from, but there was still"a vast area to cover given the amount of time she had been missing".
