A former police dog who helped put criminals behind bars is receiving treatment for a rare skin condition at Goddard Veterinary Group’s South Woodford practice.

“Rusty, a Labrador cross cocker spaniel, served as a search dog with the Metropolitan Police, sniffing out drugs, firearms and money, and many of his finds helped lead to convictions. Rusty suffers from an ongoing condition that affects the skin around his eye,” said vet Adam Thoms.

The treatment is part of the practice’s support of the London Retired Police Dogs Trust.
