I'd want to know more details before making that judgement.  Recently,  a
police dog here was sent to hold a violently angry truck driver who went  out 
of
control about losing his job.  As the dog rounded the truck, the truck  
driver 
dropped to the ground in surrender, and the dog hit a member of the swat 
team who was closing in.  Of course, the whole thing was live on TV,  so the
police force put out a public statement.  The dog was actually doing  what he
was trained to do, and the swat team member had forgotten that he was
supposed to freeze when a dog was being sent.  
 
You can't expect a dog to automatically know which of two people in a
fight he is being sent after, if both are behaving in an aggessive or  
agitated
manner.

Just  have to say that this is a weak dog that has no business being on the  
force if he won't out when he's told to.  A dog is worthless as a  patrol 
animal 
if he doesn't listen to a simple command.

I have another case of a man who was   trying to 
break up a fight and the police sent in the dog, (German  shepherd) ,  who 
attacked the wrong person and would not release when  ordered to do  so.
