Police Dogs are used a bullshit way of fucking people out of their 4th amendment rights

I do think they have a very useable ability in protecting the public, but are mostly used for the wrong reasons.

As far as I know, a record of all uses, alerts and searches is required everywhere. I have serious doubts about the accuracy of it though, particularly because so many police think that finding a place where drugs were or probably were is somehow similar to finding drugs.

You aren't just wrong with your post.... You don't even realize that drug detection is not used nearly as much as patrol work, right? And if you are going for percentage of use, you have to add in explosive detection. Then don't forget the poor USDA dogs and their food detection at airport border entry points.

Can you explain how these dogs are "mostly used for the wrong reasons"? Like, what reasons are wrong?

Show me where the bad dog touched you.

We have heard that for decades. The 9th Circuit has argued that the dogs are deadly force. Never taken into a case law though......and they have had recent chances. And you do realize most big organizations are self-insured?

I have been sued over the K9, but not for biting. It was only for our "intimidating appearance" was in violation of the 4th. With bodycams and documenting every contact and deployment, there is an actual record of what occurs. When something is bad, they will pay quickly to settle and take care of injuries. Once there was a shift to longer settle everything, lawsuits dropped significantly.

As for you walking by the car, my work dog would do that. That is his house and wants to protect it. Same way my house dog will do the same thing. Come to the door and he won't be friendly. My work dog would wait to bite you until I said it was ok. You might get covered in slobber while he was waiting though!

Dogs are trained to specific smells.  They would not hit on weed if that had been omitted from the training.  And probably is on a lot of current trainees.    Once in the field any dog mistakes are actually the K9 officers fault in their ongoing training.  Officer can also fake it, but I really doubt that happens a great deal.  If the dog doesn't smell it, it's not there.  So why waste your time as a cop searching?  

I had a bird dog when I was younger.  If there was great cover that should hold birds and he passed it, I might call him back for another look.  If no reaction, we don't stomp though, we move on because there are no birds in the spot at this time.   That is how a good dog works regardless of targeted smell.

Thats not how freedom works.  If you can afford it neither should be banned.  Dont worry though, Narcan is expensive and will never get prioritized over the drug that is now dirt cheap because its not black market prices. Additionally, no one will be knocking over a house for Narcan money like they used to do for drug money.  Also it would get rid of Chinese produced garbage that is more the cause.   End of the day it would lessen property crime and improve the chances for people to get off it if they ever were so inclined because they wont have a mountain of legal woes beforehand.

So if you've got a trunk full of coke then you drive smoking a joint and it's all good? Also, what happens when the dog alerts on an odour of MJ that wasn't detectable to the officer? Seems extremely easy to challenge.

If you’re smoking a joint and driving that’s now a DUID investigation. And unfortunately there’s no simple test so blood draw warrant, vehicle tow and inventory.

If the dog detects MJ over cocaine it won’t matter since the cocaine is located and presumed to be what the dog hit on. It’s probable cause not absolute certainty.

dogs can be made to detect odors and if pot becomes federally legal, then the general feeling is that the single purpose dogs would either be retrained for article search or apprehension or retired.

also it should be noted, that dogs can still be trained on the other odors , just not pot..  

I have also seen first hand, where the dog will sit at any spot as a PC dog we call it, but its up to the handler to note behavior of change and get specific to the area..  

We are counting on the cop to protect the constitution while still enforcing the law, which sometimes is not in agreement.    
the lazy handler will allow a dog to simply sit when working..  

The guys I personally know and spend time with, are good handlers and I am just acknowledging the fact that PC dogs exist.

Yes there is harm as someones rights have been violated.


"Amendment 4 - Search and Seizure

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

The dog can't tell you what type drug it hit on so the court should be able to issue a warrant as they can't describe what to seize. This would call into question all dog searches as their is no reason to believe that the drugs might have hit on a prescription.
