London — A German Shepherd named Visco who helped in making an incredible 142 arrests in 2012 has been named Britain's best police dog.

Visco and his handler constable Matt Holding detained at least one criminal for Staffordshire Police every three days, the Daily Mail reported.

The duo was formed in 2009 after Visco was brought from Germany. Visco will be five years old in February 2013.

The German Shepherd lives at the home of dog support unit inspector Chris Dawson and his partner Jo Willis, who is also a dog handler.
