“The police dog unit truck has enough room to sit in a minifigure on the front by removing and placing back the glass. The back of the truck can be opened up to fit in a dog. Interestingly, the back of the truck is five studs wide and is connected by SNIR bricks.”

BrickEconomy Member Review
“The Police Dog Unit offers a compact build featuring a police truck with space for a K9 and a single minifigure. While the set includes useful accessories like handcuffs and a walkie-talkie, the dog’s loose fit in the back compartment may be a drawback.”
