This is good news. They might just be animals to some but they are highly trained and serving their country and they deserve to be afforded some protection to prolong their active duty life.
£6k per dog and it’s pretty extensive list of stuff. Well worth it they are very good dogs.
I mean 500 dogs x 30k (as someone suggested they cost to train) is 15 million… make sense to spend a bit to protect your assets.
Meanwhile I have to buy my own boots in the police
Jokes aside, happy for the doggos
Ah yeah, [my cat has those same goggles](https://www.reddit.com/r/thegrandtour/comments/1fjp7d8/cycled_past_clarkson_awhile_ago_and_really_blew/), they’re pretty good.
