A police dog came to the aid of officers after spotting cannabis and a “large amount” of cash in Whittlesey.
Cambridgeshire police officers were able to locate the drugs and cash at a house in Church Street on Wednesday, November 3 thanks to PD Fred.
Two men were arrested after the discovery.
A police spokesperson said: “An unspecified amount of cannabis was found, although this was not classed as a factory.
