In APCO 10-codes, 10-11 means "Dog Case."
This code is typically used in law enforcement communications to refer to a situation involving a dog, often indicating that a police officer or unit is dealing with a dog-related issue. This could include various scenarios, such as a stray dog, a dog involved in an incident, or when a canine unit is deployed.
For example:
- Officer: "We're receiving reports of a stray dog in the area."
- Dispatch: "Understood, please advise if you need assistance with a 10-11."
Using 10-11 helps clarify the nature of the call, enabling dispatch and other officers to understand the context and respond appropriately.
