(puppies featured in the photo supplied by RCMP are Makwa and Maya)
The RCMP say they have the winning names for the first 13 puppies born at the Police Dog Services Training Centre in 2019.
They say they received a record setting 34-thousand-7 hundred 14 entries from children in every province and territory. That beats out the previous record by over 13,000 entries. All names had to start with a letter “M”. For entries of the same name, a draw determined the winner.
The winners each receive an official RCMP baseball cap, a stuffed dog named Justice and a laminated 8 by 10 photo of the puppy they named.
