Three-legged Essex police dog finds new home

A police dog who lost a leg in the line of duty has a new home for retirement following a public appeal.

Baloo, a two-year-old Belgian Malinois, could no longer work after being hit by a car.

Essex Police received hundreds of offers from people willing to give her a home.

In the end, Baloo was given to retired police dog handler Mandy Chapman, who used to work for the Metropolitan Police.
