Puppies!

The RCMP are hosting their annual Name the Puppy contest!

The Police Dog Service Training Centre in Innisfail, Alberta, is asking young Canadians to suggest names for 13 German shepherd puppies that will be born at the Centre in 2021.

The 13 children whose names are selected will each receive a laminated 8×10-inch photo of the pup they name, a plush dog named Justice and an RCMP water bottle.

The deadline for entries is March 18. Contest winners and the winning names will be announced on April 28 on the RCMP website and social media.
