Re: Great outcome, but what about over here?

It's very unusual for a dog to be turned against its owner but there was an amusing case in the UK of a criminal who was very experienced with dogs successfully getting a police dog to attack a police officer.

Indeed - its why my friend (met. dog handler) uses a mixture of Japanese, German, and Dutch for different commands. He never uses English, except for "seek" - he wants the suspect to know the dog is coming. The command for release is definitely not the dogs name followed by "let him go", "release", or "get off him", often issued in increasingly loud sequence and seeming deperation - after all, you never know who is listening ;-)
