Polly the detector dog was one of the most successful members of HM Revenue & Customs' Frontiers team.
The six-year old English Springer Spaniel was rescued from an animal shelter in 2001 and trained for a career policing the nation's borders.
During her five-year career with HMRC, Polly has sniffed out more than £3million in cash, 540kgs of cannabis, 68kgs of ecstasy and almost 500gms of amphetamine.
She retires on Thursday (18 January).
