This adorable litter of German Shepherd puppies are pictured playing together as if they haven't a care in the world.

But the four-week-old family are already being trained for their future as elite crime-fighters for West Midlands Police.

The cute and fluffy dogs are groomed to be 'obsessed with toys' to assist their training for this very serious job.

The seven brothers and sisters will be placed with volunteers in just two weeks to help them become socialised and accustomed to different environments.

They will then go through several assessments to see if they are suitable, before being paired up with an officer to start training in earnest at just 15 months old.

Dave Raymond, breed scheme manager for West Midlands Police, said: 'German Shepherds are all round good dogs, they're naturally guarding dogs so they can be a little vocal with their barking.

'The big challenge is getting them obsessed with toys, as that's how we do a lot of the training - although it can get a bit annoying for the volunteers because they tend to go for any small objects like shoes which are left lying around the house.'

These four male and three females were born at the force's dog unit to two working police dogs - Cassie and Bach.

PC Raymond predicts that the puppies will make perfect police dogs.

'The dad is very strong and the mum is very strong - they've got a great genetic line,' he said.
If any do not reach the necessary level, they will go to a loving home.


West Midlands Police dog unit manager, Inspector Russ Evans, said: 'The dogs we train are key members of our team so we want to ensure we do the best by them from the very start.
