Uncooperative bank robber caught in ditch by K9 unit, bit in neck.
Is that within scope of normal training?
Cite:
My colleagues of the time and myself received some experience training of being attacked by security dogs.
Their R.A.F. handlers told us that putting your arm out would not necessarily mean that the dog would bite your arm.
The dogs were all individuals and had their own preferences,one always used to go for the neck and then flip its self over,another always went for the backside.
When they sent a dog after me there was some doubt that it would catch me as apparently I was going for marathon distance at sprint speed but when it caught me we had a hell of a fight but the dog won in the end.
A little tip,when you’re in a nonconfrontational situation with a handler and his dog DONT look the dog in the eyes as it seems to make them really,really nutso.
On an escape and evasion excercise one of my mates dove into a river and started swimming to evade one but the dog went into the water after him caught him up and “put the bite on him”.
Another mate of mine killed one once when it was sent into a thicket where he was cornered and the army made him pay for it the tight fisted bastards.
Well, that’s a record as far as I can tell.

Oh, and how much do the RAF charge if you kill their dog?
Hmmm. New article:

How’d that happen?
On an E&E my mate got cornered within a thicket by the hunter forces,they told him to come out and made threats but we all knew that the consequences of being caught, even on an excercise, would be extremely unpleasant so he declined .
They sent in a dog but he put a mess tin on his fist and gave it a punching,not unusually for us he was a very violent man.
On this occasion he/we won.
The dog didn’t .
