K9 units are on the front line for every dangerous and in progress call, and it's up to the unit manager to ensure officers have the best possible dogs, equipment, and training for them to do their job and help mitigate the related risk.
Robert Eden, a retired 28-year police veteran with extensive experience as a K9 handler and trainer, provides police departments with a template for the successful development and supervision of police-service dog operations. It provides a wealth of information for supervisors who have limited or no experience with police dogs, as well as new ideas and expert recommendations for those with an extensive K9 background
