Best Answer

The most obvious answer, for me, is that police dogs can respond consistently and quickly to commands. Police dogs also know their chain of command: they are not dominant. Depending on what the police dog has been trained for, they can also detect bombs, drugs, cadavers. These dogs are also trained to apprehend persons (only when told by their handler), and are trained to do so in a way that will not allow for the suspect to sue the handler/police agency.
