Police Dog Amber is licking her lips in anticipation of the sticky treats to come after helping a South Wales Police roads officer retrieve his car keys. PD Amber was thrust into action after the officer lost his keys in Merthyr - and what made it all the more frustrating was that his Volvo patrol car was brand new.
Police tweeted the officer lost the keys "after a foot pursuit with a male". However, the keys were found by keen-nosed Police Dog Amber. While Amber spared the officer's blushes, it looks like they will still incur a 'cake fine'.
'Cake fines' are a tradition in the emergency services that see colleagues insist on cake if their work mates commit minor infractions of informal work-related rules or etiquette. According to the spoof Cake Fines and Offences Act of 2018, which can be found online, Infringements liable to incur cake fines include crashing an emergency service vehicle, being late for the start of a shift, and causing or permitting colleagues to be late off shift.
