Emotional support dog to help victims during crime interviews | SWNS TV

  • 5 years ago
A home counties police force has become the first in the country to offer victims help during crime interviews - from an emotional support dog.

Kent Police are using two-year-old Oliver, a Labrador-retriever cross, as part of a study into the effect the animals can have on witnesses during investigations and trials, by allowing victims to stroke him. It is understood the project, being led by Canterbury Christ Church University, is the first in the world.
