Help Sault Police Name Their New Pup
The Sault Ste. Marie Police Service needs help naming their new Police Service Dog!
Students in elementary school (JK-Grade 8) are invited to submit name ideas for the Canine Unit’s new Belgian Malinois pup.
The new canine and his handler are currently training at the Ontario Provincial Police Academy Canine Training Centre in Orillia, Ontario. Although Police Service Dogs remain unnamed during their training, he will need a name worthy of a Sault Police canine upon his return.
To submit a name suggestion, download and print the contest’s colouring page here and email a photo or scan to k9@ssmps.org by December 1, 2023. If you are unable to print a copy, you may simply email your student’s name suggestion along with their own name, grade, and elementary school.
Students who submit a name suggestion will be entered into a random draw to win a class visit from a police cruiser and the canine in the new year.
Names of past and current Sault Police canines include Eagle, Taser, Justice, Hektor, and Red. These names will not be chosen again.
