Police Dogs

 The police call the dogs they use is K-9 which is a hhomophone for canine. The police use dogs to search out for drugs, arson, explosives and much more. The first type breed that used before they used the Belgian Shepherd Dog is the German Shepherd but they do use other dogs like Dutch Shepherds, Rottweilers, Boxers, etc. The dogs they use in the forces for work, if they die bravely they get a funeral and if someone kills the dog they will get prosecuted by the law since its almost like assaulting a police officer. The dogs are loyal animals and very easy to train if you do it right. They will get special ballistic vests to protect the dog and even get there own ID and police badge. They use the dogs in Europe, Belgium, China, Netherlands, United Kingdom, USSR, USA. They retire the dogs if there badly hurt and cant recover or if there pregnant, raising puppies, and or sick and old. (i got this information on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Police_dog#Retirement)
