"Fire Dog" Helps Police Solve Arson Cases
A highly trained fire investigation dog sits proudly after a job well done. Nicknamed "The Fire Dog", Billy and partner Duncan Carmichael are part of K9 Response, responsible for investigating the aftermath of suspicious blazes.
Working alongside Fire Investigators and Police, the pair is tasked with identifying arson cases and ensuring that evidence is properly recovered to assist in prosecution. They also attend schools, open days and other public events to promote fire safety.
"The role Billy plays is of vital importance," says handler Duncan.
Car manufacturer Škoda UK announced last week they had supplied Billy and Duncan with a specially adapted Škoda Yeti, which includes a kennel drainage system, air conditioning and other features.
"We are proud to support Duncan and Billy the fire dog in the invaluable work that they do for their community," says Alan Barrowman, Area Fleet Manager Scotland & Northern England for Škoda UK.
"As well as being safe and reliable, this vehicle provides excellent value for money, impressive comfort for the handler and a safe environment for Billy."
