Question: which dog is a best for police work

Keywords: , ,

  1. @bigbrain: Whichever dog is engaged and having fun doing the work! 🙂
    Seriously, there are a few different kinds of working Police dogs and the Australian state and federal Police use different breeds, so there’s not an easy answer.

    ||| Types of police dogs |||

    General Purpose: these are the security, tracking and apprehending dogs used to find criminals – they are usually belgian mallinois or german shepherds, sometimes rottweilers.

    Cadaver Detection: these dogs are used to locate dead bodies. They are often labradors or springer spaniels.

    Narcotics Detection: these dogs are used to locate illicit drugs. Again, they are often labradors or springer spaniels.

    Explosive Detection: these dogs are used to locate explosive substances that might be related to bombs or firearms. Again, they are often labradors or springer spaniels.

    Currency detection: these dogs are used to locate large amounts of money (usually in airports or at docks). Again, they are often labradors or springer spaniels.
