who knows but i certainly dont think it deserves to die
one could argue if it wasnt for the dog the handler would be dead

As above, you can't say that for sure.

doubt they would sue the police after it hurts one of thier children and not only that the children have been looking after the dog since the handler has had it and nothings happened
As above, what about other children? Even adults? If you think people wouldn't sue you're not living in England these days TBH

any dog is capable of biting someone regardless of whether its been trained as a police dog
Yea, but this dog has been trained to kill/seriously hurt people, has it not? Makes it 100 times more likely to seriously injure someone.

and as for it being a tool, ex police cars are sold off not crushed and ex police themselves retire happily not executed
Ex police cars can't (not anymore than any other cars) kill people.
Sorry Kerry, but you're fighting a lost cause

police dogs are not trained to kill

cars do kill ryan
police cars tend to be more slightly modified than normal cars therefore more likely to kill

if you actually read the links most police dogs either stay with thier handler or be rehomed. they are only ever destroyed humanely as recommened by a vet due to age or injuries
the only time a dog is detroyed is if it bites someone which is quite rare and lets face it this happens all the time regardless of whether its ex police or not

I like the way you ignored the seriously injure part

I know cars kill, hence why I said not any more than any other cars....
And just because they're slightly modified doesn't mean they're more likely to kill atall. THey might even be safer depending on what the mods were, eg bigger brakes more stopping power? And just because they are modified doesn't mean in the grand scheme of things that they are fast, think of other cars that are made fast, eg hot hatches, they're more likely to kill TBH.

but the police have branded him dangerous and now the public thinks a petition will overcome that.
just seems to me that the police are there to make those kinda judgements/decisions for the publics safety.
can't they meet halfway and get it stuffed?

I think thats what the people with compassion see. The people who think it should be put down probably don't have a dog which has been a faithful companion for years

Your own dog!?
Your own dog is a pet, correct?
They want to keep it as a pet and yet it has police training, meaning they are more likely to hurt etc.
ENough said TBH, shame for the dog but it's in the best interests of the public.

I fail to see how a Police dog has been trained to kill someone they are trained to stop attackers, not kill them 
But if they decided to put it down, then how can they be stopped??

It's an unnecessary risk that DOESN'T have to be taken. Yes, it's a shame for the dog and people that care for it, obviously, but it would be a bigger shame if it killed a member of the public TBH.

Exactly, a police dog is a highly trained animal, far less likely to hurt someone than an un-trained domestic dog imo.

Ry, I don't see where you're getting this "kill" from mate, they are trained to subdue suspects, not kill. If anything there's probably been more attacks from rottweilers (sp) etc than trained ones.

Yes by me. My points are all valid, apart from perhaps the killing one.
