Toowoomba residents have the chance to get their paws on the Queensland Police Service (QPS) 2026 Dog Squad Calendar at a special pop-up stall at Grand Central Shopping Centre on Tuesday 16 December.
With less than two weeks until Christmas, the calendar is shaping up as the hottest gift in town and will be available to purchase at the Coffee with a Cop stand (outside Best & Less) between 9am and 12 noon.
The calendar features a selection of members making up the QPS Dog Squad, including specialist detection dogs, tactical working dogs, general-purpose dogs, and debuts some of its newest recruits - police puppies!
From our smallest recruits to our highly skilled police dogs, each dog's unique personality shines through each month while speaking to the vital role they play in frontline operations.
All proceeds from sales of the calendar will be donated to Blue Paws Association and Blue Hope Support Services, two not-for-profit organisations dedicated to supporting current and retired police dogs and officers across Queensland.
