Hektor German Shepherd
Retired Police Dog
About
Hektor served with Police Service of Northern Ireland for 7 Years, he was the best partner his handler could have had on patrol, as he loved his public order duties. His claim to fame was when he was standing on a line with both the TSG and water cannons during the riots in Belfast in 2021, making the front page of most newspapers with his cheeky face!
Hektor has saved many lives throughout his career, once tracking with his handler to a young male who was hanging, allowing him valuable seconds to cut him down and save his life.
His excited howls as his handler opened the boot had one criminal walk out from behind a house to surrender before he had even opened the hatch – this was typical of Hektor, he was a fierce protector and the best boy.
He now enjoys his retirement at home with his handler surrounded by hens, cats, and horses. Hektor loves walks in the local forest, but his favourite place would have to be the beautiful beaches on the north coast of Northern Ireland.
Hektor suffers with serious allergies, requiring monthly medication to ease his symptons.
