It was a family affair for PD Razor, with his father and three brothers also police dogs with great careers.

Throughout his career PD Razor has located hundreds of offenders, assisted with searches of missing persons and won the hearts of countless children on his many school visits.

PD Vince recently finished his 12-week training at the Oxley Police Academy and has moved to Mount Isa to be with Sergeant McMahon.
