LONDON (Reuters) - Police in Scotland have set up a Web site to allow the public to meet their newest, and cutest, recruit as he learns how to sniff out criminals.
A six-week-old jet-black puppy with no name has been given his own online diary as he prepares to begin his new career with Tayside Police.
Officers said the puppy, one of a litter of seven, has attracted huge interest since he was unveiled as the force's latest crime-fighting weapon.
The dog's new handler, Constable Mike Keenan, said: "The benefits of using German Shepherds are that they are generally very loyal and hard working, as well as being intelligent."
Keenan's wife Jennifer has asked pupils from St Ninian's Primary School in Dundee to come up with a name for the puppy.

All dawwgs if fo beatins..
I joke with my girlfriend who fosters dogs in need.
There all bad...
How about naming him "Rowan"? (Rowan Atkinson in "The Thin Blue Line")
Oh I like that! He’s a little cutie.
LMAO...
He’s gonna hafta eat a lot of steaks to grow into that hat.
If he were named “Shadow” = it would be “Scáth” in Gaelic
Don’t know of a Gaelic word for “Spook” and the Gaelic for “Midnight” is a two word tongue twister.
Now who would not want to be “attacked” by this pack of puppies :-)
Blackest dog I’ve ever seen.
Major awwwwww from this cat guy.
Me too, owner of a 19 year old black cat.

Great comedian, and tip o’ the hat to you for a great eye.
