Finn is a beautiful police dog and his parent is PC Dave Wardell.

Finn saved PC Dave life! Unfortunately Finn was very badly hurt and had to have a operation to make him better.

One day on October 5th 2016 PC Dave and Finn were running after a young man, as he had done something very bad, when they got closer, the man turned and attacked PC Dave and Finn with a knife, he hurt Finn in the head and chest and as the young man went to hurt PC Dave, Finn stopped him and kept hold of him until more police came to help.

The young man who did this didn’t get told off, PC Dave was very upset about this, so a campaign was started, this was to help animals have protection just like a human police person.

A lot of kind people signed the petition and through kindness and empathy from all those lovely people, the campaign won and a law passed through Westminster.

So, from 8th June 2019 Finns Law was actioned.

If anyone hurts a service animal (Dog or Horse) will now be punished, which is correct, as animals are very brave and no one should hurt them.

Finn is really well now and made a full recovery from his injuries, he lives with PC Dave and his family, which is great news, isn’t it?

Well Done Finn, you are a Hero!
