I think dogs working for law enforcement agencies are being abused and someone should call PETA. I'm half-kidding, of course, although I did see a great piece on 60 Minutes some years ago about the disturbing lack of qualifications and standardized testing drug-sniffing dogs undergo before their "testimony" is used to lock up suspected offenders for years at a time.
But that's not the worst of it. Some poor kid in New Zealand is facing amputation because of the injuries he's received as a result of a bite from a police dog. I know McGruff said, "Take a bite out of crime" but damn!

"Tristan Abraham, 17, of the North Island city of Palmerston North, had been released on bail for burglary, theft and driving charges."
Seems pretty straightforward to me: the kid was a criminal, so the dog took a bite out of him. There's your bite out of crime. Give Cujo a promotion.
