A Day in the Life: Police Dog Handler

[@leannkuipers5587]

I volunteer at an animal shelter in the Netherlands, and we often take care of police dogs when the cops who take care of them are on vacation. And honestly, police dogs are one of the sweetest dogs I have ever met.

[@jpfuzz3918]

Nice man

[@Jay-fq8uz]

Hmmm I’ve heard exact opposite

[@skyetheanimallover3131]

@@Jay-fq8uz yeah because the media makes all cops out to be bad so in turn the dogs but actually they are really sweet on time a police officer brought one into my school (we were outside) when we were 8-9 and nothing happened even when he was of the leash being commanded to run at something,chase a toy, or bark\growl

I was on the Canine Unit for 8 years here in Ontario Canada. My boy came home with me and there were no kennels. I still have him. After the Canine Unit I went to the Mounted Unit. 😀

[@deniseockey8989]

I think the kennels are for unassigned dogs or dogs still undergoing training maybe?

Tiarnna Smith ikr!!

I'm pretty sure all dogs techincally have that. Google "dog teeth" and you'll see

Ikr!!!! I can’t handle it! 🥺💕

[@Police-Officer-Fan-Club]

I totally came to see the cute cop with the fluffy tail, claws and sharp teeth. 😊

[@michaelheliotis5279]

I think we need more police dog videos, as evidently they're very popular and the more attention this channel can bring to the amazing work of NZ Police, the better informed and appreciative the public will be. And it's a great way to inspire people to join too; I think there are many people out there that would make great police officers, but they either don't realise it or are too intimidated because they don't actually know what being a pirihimana is really like.

[@crystalniefert4190]

Lol Vulcan had a "disagreement" with his bowl, now it's on display. Love it!!!

[@newzealandpolice]

hahah... good way of putting it eh

[@allisonjames2923]

Maybe Vulcan had a dream he was chasing bad guys & got to chew them all up & then woke up to find his bowl in his mouth 😳🐶

[@K9Cop2314]

As a K9 handler in the USA, this was cool to see. So many similarities in our work, with some small differences.

[@jessicat4934]

The dog cam is just too cool.

[@marzp7303]

I remember the name of the dog that caught the guys who robbed our place! We praised him coz he done such an awesome job! I have a lot of respect for the dogs and their handlers. Shout out to “Bear” for catching those crims out in Otara that night! ♥️

[@therealkingfrances3242]

Handler-She caught a guy submerged down in the creek the other night Dog- yawns 😂😂🐺🐺

[@mitchgirard9655]

Thank you police officers for what you do and What you protect thank you’s for all these videos loving them all can’t wait for the next one

[@kianih]

I love this because yes these dogs are incredibly well trained, highly skilled and intimidating when they need to be but theyre still also happy silly puppies as showcased when the handler goes to the kennels in the morning, and we, as the general public, often dont get to see that side of service animals. Man i love dogs we dont deserve them.

[@gillybean5672]

Haven is a beauty.

[@tasha_111_]

I absolutely LOVE seeing police dogs that have a good “out” rather than having to be choked off a bite every time 👏👌👏👌 Oh and Haven’s little underbite is adorable!!!

[@WEPS101]

This is an awesome video, I've always wanted to know what it's like to be in the Dog Squad! Thank you for the video, keep em coming please!

[@katiem6620]

I love police dogs ❤️ I see them often here in Perth at train stations and in the CBD on my way to and from work, I’d love to give them a good belly rub haha. My friend who is an officer (not in the canine unit though) has told me that people should respond to police dogs in a similar way to service/therapy dogs etc. Give them plenty of space, don’t distract them from their job, and if you need to approach the officer, just ask beforehand from a safe distance so you aren’t perceived as a threat. Police dogs are beautiful ❤️ their handlers are so lucky.

[@teresarillamas4885]

Please, please !!! More of these kind of video's of the police dogs!! Cheer's!!

[@olivyadodge641]

I love this! Now I know more than ever being an Alaska State Trooper in the K9 Unit is my true passion! I love dogs, and can't wait till I'm a trooper!

K-9 officers are awesome! They’re honestly so sweet. I met a handler who was nice and upon realizing I had my service dog coming he put his dog away so neither of them would be distracted. He was very polite about it.

[@LivKingsley]

My dream dog is a white, female German Shepherd named Nuage (which means "Cloud" in French) but call her Nunu for short. I want to train her, obviously not fully as a police or military dog would be, but definitely enough to be able to track and follow instant command, as well as to protect if needed, along with other cool tricks. Also, it would be SO incredible to be able to meet and interact (obviously NOT as someone who did something wrong) with a police dog. I admire them and their training so much and they're just incredible.

[@tmadventures9100]

In America police dogs are also Family dogs. This way they are less hyper and more loyal. Cool video! Thanks for sharing!

[@doncoleman4938]

And I thought it was only duty officers picking up the sh*t! (Sorry, bad Inspector joke). I must confess-I got in trouble by a dog squad officer one day. He was inside the hospital with his ute parked next to our ambulance. There was this feral grub hanging around this "No Public Beyond This Point" zone. Obviously didn't know the difference between a paramedic and a police officer. He asked the dog's name, I said "Rouse" (maybe a joke lost only on dog squad members), and he asked if he could pat "Rouse". I said "you might want to call his name first and put your fingers near the cage". A couple of minutes later I went in and caught up with the dog squad officer (a mate of mine). Doggie: "How's it going?" Me: "I'm good, but you're dog's not. I think he's trying to make a meal of some guy in the ambulance bay". After he checked and came back to call me all the names under the sun, we had a laugh about it. If you've read this far, let me ask you. Does NZP contribute financially to the dog's upkeep when they're in your care? Cheers from Brisbane!

[@funnystuff9998]

Why not train the dogs to go for the testies of the bad guys? It'd help ensure the bad guy DNA and lineage stops right there. But seriously, thanks for the top vid and keep up the good work.

White fish is great for her coat man brings the real nice shine to coat. I have my dude he’s just about 6 months. And have him on raw diet. Mix veg with chicken and beef dinners meaty dinners with veg ect It’s great for them. Stops them shedding bad too. Much less hair loss. And no damage to the teeth but helps sharpens the teeth and gives good energy to them for type of work you have; She’s absolutely gorgeous though man I can’t wait for my lad to fill out.

Awesome loved this one soooo much, I've always been interested in this side. Do you ever worry about them being hurt? You would have more chance of that then a pet dog being hurt. I only ask cause the bond between dog and handler is so intense. Awesome though I hope theres more of these videos
