Dog Squad - First Episode
Television (Full Length Episode) – 2010
This long-running reality series, made for TVNZ, follows the lives of dogs and their handlers: "fighting crime, saving lives", and helping protect New Zealand’s streets and borders. The very first episode sees the dog squad diffuse a street brawl in Manurewa, nab a runner from a crashed stolen car, and bust a visitor trying to smuggle contraband into Waikeria Prison in the Waikato. Plus avalanche rescue dogs are trained at Mt Hutt ski resort. This first Dog Squad series was produced by Cream Media (the company was taken over by Greenstone TV in 2010).
The dog squad is often the first to arrive on any crime scene. And this means the risk to handler and dogs is always high.– Narrator Jason Hoyte, on Auckland's Police Delta Squad
