We're always looking for an excuse to write about dogs on a car website and the New South Wales Police Force in Australia is now providing us with the opportunity. No fewer than 60 new Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace SUVs will become part of the fleet in the next 12 months, and some will have a special feature. Developed in collaboration with dog handlers, a custom box installed behind the front seats will host NSW's police dogs.
The newly designed module has a few features that should make the workday a lot easier for the canine unit. Chief of which is undoubtedly air conditioning, but there's also a small window allowing the four-legged police officer to reach its head into the front row. The NSW Police Force is spending $2 million (that's Australian dollars) for the SUVs, which will come with a temperature alarm to alert the handler in case the furry cop gets too hot.
