Pet Project

At Least He’s Got A Woof Over His Head

A former police officer in Britain has a new role - as a pet detective. Tom Watkins left his job after he became disillusioned with the justice system. He is now using his detective skill to look for lost cats and dogs. He said: "There was so much red-tape involved in the police. But being a pet detective is something I love. I have been brought up with animals and I always wanted to help people."

FOOTNOTE: Reigning cats and dogs.

Is there a paw print data-base?

Ace Ventura made it look so easy, I'm sure a lot of people got in to the pet detection field after that movie!

To each his own, right.

Oh boy. That's pun-riffic.

Sounds like what happened to Ace Ventura: Pet Detective.

It is difficult work, but with great rewards. I help people find their lost pets in-person in California and have helped people all over the world via phone and email. I also work with a man out of Ohio who helps out there in the U.S.
