Police sniffer dog dies of nose cancer after sniffing cocaine
A police drugs sniffer dog has died of a rare nose cancer after years sniffing cocaine during his work.
Springer spaniel Max, aged nine, may have caught the disease because of the effect of cocaine and other drugs he was taught to detect.
Police Inspector Anne Higgins, the dog's owner, fears the training may have led to the disease which led to him being put down last week.
Max worked as a drugs dog with the Avon and Somerset police but lived with Insp Higgins, who is based at Tiverton police station in Devon.
She said: "It is ironic the wonderful organ that made him successful in his work has been his demise.
"It may or may not have been connected with what he used to do. Up until a couple of weeks ago he seemed fine and was doing well but it was an aggressive tumour.
"It was very hard to have him put down but we had to do it.
"I took him to the police station which he usually loved and was his favourite place but he did not show any reaction to being there and we knew he was not right.
"He was a fighter until the end and always very dignified. He has had a good life and a successful one as a police dog. Just think of all the bad people he managed to put away."
Max retired from police work last year after arthritis in his back legs led to him being fitted with a trolley so he could still run around.
Inspector Higgins said the cancer caused an infection in his front legs which threatened to leave him completely immobile.
Kate Fairclough, the dog's vet, his work may have caused his death from nasal cancer, which is rare in dogs.
She said: "Sniffing drugs may well have been a factor. I certainly cannot rule it out.
"Nose cancer in dogs is not at all common. It represents only one or two per cent of all cancers.
"It is difficult to know what caused it as there are so many different factors involved. Environmental factors can plat a part.
"He had done so well since 2006 when it was thought he would have to be put down so he had an extra three years of life.
"It is always hard to do and he was such a lovely dog."

Re: DrinkYourKoolaid – I ordered the "Furburger", there better be more than 12!
this is so sad
aw poor dog
Maybe it's a pringer spaniel thing and not the cocaine that casued the cancer…
i know lots of people who've 'sniffed' cocaine and they usually die of od…not cancer…
Maybe the owner had the dog smoke cigarettes fatboy!!!!
my dog likes to sniff, lick and salivate over her own crotch even when I tell her to get a room. Does that mean she'll die of nose or tongue or crotch cancer? I'll let you know in 10 years if she doesn't get hit by a bus first.
PEREZ ,YOU BETTER HOPE YOU DONT GET TESTICULAL CANCER FROM SNIFFING TEDDYS BALLS.
Oh, poor Max. So sad…..
it's really not that ironic you dumb bitch. you trained this innocent animal to find drugs and consequently inhale them, which is totally inhumane in itself. how did you think it would end up? police using these animals to do their jobs should be ashamed of themselves.

Re: LG sez Drug Test Palin NOW! – Coke can to cofffee can? Did I miss 2 liter?
How sad
A "jailbreak" is the term used when you are forcing a poop and several farts slip out at a machine gun's pace. This is usually a side effect of diarrhea or a hangover.
it's complete bollock he didn't die because of coke. there was an article about it afterwords saying it was wrong
Re: DrinkYourKoolaid –
you rock!
answer me this…
why do men have nipples?
Aww that is sooo sad.. Not fair…. Not fair at all…
People have often asked me where do farts go when you hold them in? The answer is that the poor captured fart simply migrates back upward into the intestine and come out later. It is reassuring to know that such farts aren't really lost, just delayed.
Re: Who wants to sit on this? – The answer my dear is because human nipples appear in the third or fourth week of development, well before the sex characteristics. Excuse me, for I must go expel some shit from my dumper. I shall return.
Hey I have an idea .. oh yeah maybe they should have never trained that innocent anomal to sniff drugs !! fucking ass holes ! they killed him slowly .. poor dog didn't know he was being set up for a shorter life and painful passing .. FUCKERS !
So sad!!! Poor puppy!

This was really sad. Poor Max was a hero, selflessly working to help keep our communities safe. He deserves our respect and admiration.
Watch out for PETA!!!!
Animal cruelty for the cause of an idiotic war on drugs! The coppers should be put down for this!
Re: LG sez Drug Test Palin NOW! – It just seemed to be the natural progression of things.
Can you say cruelty to animals?
Re: guilty of being white – A dogs nose reacts different to Cocaine then a humans nose ,if its true and thats why the dog got nose cancer then they have to figure something new out to spot cocaine.Feel soo sorry for the poor dog!!
You'd better keep Teddy out of your bathroom… you don't want him to find your stuff right Piggy?
Such a sad story, poor dog.
Once PETA gives the police force a good chewing out-we can say goodbye to police dogs trained to do this!
this shit is fucked up and sad.

WTF? Pooor puppy! So sad - a lot of these drug-sniffing dogs become addicted to the very drugs they are supposed to be looking for. I am sure PETA is freaking out on this.
Stop doing drugs now, you dopes.
the dog probably got cancer from the shit they use to cut the cocaine down with, god knows what they have mixed in with it
