Royal Mail’s Gone Barking

05 Feb 08

It’s been 100 years since the police services in Britain began to use dogs as aides to crime fighting. Now, to mark the place of the four-pawed in the lives of the British, the Royal Mail has introduced a series of new commemorative stamps that feature dogs in a variety of essential roles — guide dogs, search and rescue, police dogs, etc., etc.

Awoof! Go to BBC news to see the stamps online — or better yet, get thee to a post office to get your paws on the real deal.

Grrwooof!
