I just can't imagine what the police force would be without police dogs in their ranks. Their usefulness is overwhelming when you watch these police shows where they are needed.
Here's some wonderful ideas the police have come up with when they entered dogs into the force.
1. In the military, They actually have a non-commissioned officer rank (Corporal) so that if anyone in the military hurts a dog it is actually against a non-commissioned officer. This is a much more serious violation than if the dog was a Private or Specialist. On a Funny note, most dog handlers in the military (at least on my base) were actually outranked by their own dog: now that's funny. But a solid idea nonetheless.
2. They make bullet-resistant vests for dogs. I think that is a great idea as they put themselves in greater danger and don't even understand the danger for the most part. Bravo.
3. They train the dogs to where it looks like a game to them. I think it's seriously funny to see the dogs looking back at their handlers right after taking down a suspect waiting for their treat. One episode I saw today was more humorus because the dog didn't get his command fast enough and after looking back went back to biting the suspect: damn stupid suspects.
4. I do know that if you kick a dog (not on experience, but the shows) that is considered assault on an officer. More money for the offense.
5. They protect our officers, which we all want to do because they are just trying to do their job and can't just shoot people like some of us would like to see them do. I've seen them not shoot at things that I feel I would've emptied my clip.
Bravo to you, the officer and his dog.
