Police Dog Base - China

A police dog trainer plays with Kunming dog pups at the Ministry of Public Security's Kunming police dog base in Kunming, southwest China's Yunnan Province, January 5, 2026. The Kunming dog is a unique breed developed by the Ministry of Public Security's Kunming police dog base through more than six decades of work. It was bred using local canine resources through the efforts of several generations of police dog professionals. In 1988, the breed passed ministry-level verification and was formally named the "Kunming dog," marking its official recognition within China's policing system. The breed is now widely deployed by China's public security authorities, customs, fire services and the military, performing roles including tracking, detection, security protection, and rescue operations. Developed domestically, it is well-adapted to China's diverse climates, terrains and operational environments. Photo by Xinhua/Jiang Wenyao/ABACAPRESS.COM
