A retired Scots police dog who saved 38 lives during an eight-year career has been honoured with a national award for its bravery.
Luna, a ten-year-old German Shepherd, called it a day in June and celebrated with her first ever holiday where she enjoyed playing on the beach and swimming in the sea. The pooch and her handler PC Linda McBride, 55, were honoured as they received a Lifesaver gong at the Thin Blue Paw Awards ceremony on Thursday night.
The duo were based at Larbert in the Central Division of Police Scotland and spent nearly eight years working across the Stirling area. They were partnered in December 2012 when Luna was just 12-weeks-old before training and then licensing in September 2014.
