Berkshire County Constabulary was the first in the country to have a dog to accompany the policemen on night duty, although this was quite usual in some places on the continent. Sir Theodore Brinkman, a large landowner, purchased one of Major Richardson’s dogs and presented it bind to the Clewer Police-station. It was claimed that Nigger could overpower one or two men and pursue escaping criminals.
