A springer spaniel called Max has died of nasal cancer which may have been caused by his police work.
Max's vet, Kate Fairclough said: 'Sniffing drugs could well have been a factor – I certainly cannot rule it out. Nose cancer in dogs is not all that common only about one to two per cent of all cancers in dogs affect the nose. He was a lovely dog.'
Max was forced to retire from Avon and Somerset Police last November after suffering a hip complaint, although he was still able to get out and about with the aid of some chariot style wheels.
I agree with the police inspector said "It is ironic that the wonderful organ that made him successful in his work has been his demise.'
