WELCOME !
This is the home page for the
Essex Retired Police Dogs Fund
We have been financially helping
retired police dogs for over 12 years.
We have been pleased to help several other
Local RPD Charities to set up just as we were
helped when we started out in 2012.
We hope you enjoy finding out about our work;
as along with other Local RPD Charities we strive to
deliver ethical local support for these exceptional dogs

Retired Police Dog Poppy

April 2026
Poppy served from January 2018 to 2021 as a
Drugs Cash & Weapons Search Dog.
She began her service at Stansted Airport supporting Border Force
and the NCA conducting Project Servator deployments.
During Covid she worked searching houses and
vehicles for controlled drugs.
Poppy retired to live with her Handler in the countryside.
She loves paddling in streams and ditches and rolling in mud
and avoiding children (she is very frighted of children ! )
