For a Wildwood Crest spouter who is concerned about the safety of a police K-9 unit, you are completely off base. Yes, there have been and will be unfortunate incidents involving police dogs. There are insurance policies that cover that. The impression that police dogs are snarling, drooling monsters is far from the truth. Privately-owned dogs are a much greater threat to the public. An innocent person is far more likely to be attacked by their neighbor's dog than a well-trained, disciplined police K9. It is much better to risk a dog in a building search than a police officer.
