Police officers in Texas had a double dose of Friday drama when they arrived at a home to serve a search warrant and their accompanying K9 dog attacked a cop instead of the perp!

Why do I get a bad feeling that K9 knew something.

Why do I get a feeling it’s going to come out later that was a dirty cop?

My brother was a dog trainer/handler in the Air Force. He told me the malinois weren’t the brightest.

There have always been handler aggressive dogs. I’ll bet it wasn’t the first time the dog had bit a handler when the dog got a correction.

Most k9 handlers aren’t dog trainers either.

“This is the second case of a police dog attacking its handler we’ve seen recently. Both Belgian Malinois./ “

At least the copper didn’t leave the poor thing locked up in the car in 100 degree heat. Or maybe he did somewhere along the line.

RIP — Smart dog...since it was Waco the dog figured the cop must have been the perp.

Dogs are typically a good judge of human character (pitbulls excluded).

We need an investigation of the attackee.

Was the dog named “Bear”?

(”Reese gives Bear his new name because he ate the bearer bonds Leon had stolen while waiting in the car for Reese and Leon to return.”)

The cop had probably been abusive to the poor dog.

This is the second case of a police dog attacking its handler we’ve seen recently. Both Belgian Malinois.


Malinois are a very smart breed, but also very bitey. They really like to bite.

They're often referred to as Maligators.

When you’re security training a guard dog they know who has the button for the collar trust me

And some know who to attack and will

Training guard dogs

Especially perimeter dogs would upset the sensibilities of most here

I’ve seen the aftermath of a trainer who’s Hoyt dobie decided to attack the man who held the shock control

90 stitches on his tricep and neck later

If he not had a choke collar on the dog too it would have killed him

When the dog came to after choke out it came back after him

One bad ass high striking Doberman

I’ve heard similar allegations. That is why I’m not a fan of the K-9 program. Too many of the dogs are mistreated, abused and neglected.

The malinois have pit bull bred into them.
