Canine Corps trains Philadelphia police dogs for city patrols
In Philadelphia, about 130 dogs serve on duty with 25 in subway and rail security. Training at the Police Academy emphasizes obedience and controlled aggression, with dogs bonded to their handlers. Two of every three donated dogs are rejected, and many dogs go home with officers. The program faced costs cuts after city council reduced funding for a planned kennel and training center.
