I talked to a top policeman in holland about this, also they dont allow their dogs to breed
stupid, they want to be able to buy good dogs, but dont help the breeders to produce them, every great dog sold to the police is lost   for breeding

sorry for the off topic

Anytime some civilian says the dog  they are selling is a "police K9" or a puppy is from a "police K9
lines? Assume they're lying and you'll be right the majority of the time :-(

It depends on where the dog is a Police Officer. For example: My Police Service Dog was my own dog, certified with the State of Ohio, me as his handler. I could of used him if I so desired.
As said before, some Departments who own the dog may not allow the dog to be bred. You would have to investigate it much more thoroughly as every Department has different regulations.

When I sell a dog that I like the genetics, I have in the contract to the municipality or county or state that I have the right to breed back to the dog. The registration of the dog is transferred to the officers name. Dogs in NJ must complJ must complete a 16 week academy to work the streets as patrol dog. The graduation ceremony is very similar  to a school graduation with accompanying paperwork.

I wonder the same thing
Know a breeder that states her dogs are "Active" police k-9 but neither she or her husband are in LE
The dogs live with her everyday (don't see how they are active for a PD if they are not working and living with her)
She states several of her breeding dogs are "Active" Narc dogs and Dual trained LE !!??? 
This is unethical

Jim,

I tried to PM you but it failed twice.  You still have my email address?  I'll send you an email to explain.  Shoot me a note and I'll respond.

I have a few LE K9s from our breedings. Each of those K9s received a certificate at graduation (which I have copies of). Additionally, when they are sworn in (yes they are sworn in as officers, in MOST depts) they are issued a badge that has a badge number. It is easy to track that badge number through the department that issued it, if you have the number.

Related question: inasmuch as we all acknowledge that there are some dogs with questionable schutzhund titles, is K9 certification any more reliable as an indication of working ability?  I've been hearing some accounts lately, from experienced K9 handlers, about patrol dogs they've encountered who won't appropriately alert on a suspect in a building search or won't indicate on drugs on a vehicle search, etc.  I would lean toward this not being prevalent but it seems that it does exist.

Would guess that all Police Services Dog Sections will have their drop-outs, and dogs known not to be particularly
good in certain situations.  Dogs that spend too much time being aggressive to other cops instead of getting on
with their job, for instance, will die young.  But no-one ever talks about that sort of stuff to the public.
I would think - from limited experience - that a dog one KNOWS to have previously been a serving K9 is probably
a very good dog to have, at least as a companion, since s/he is likely to have been 'retired' for age/medical, rather
than behavioural, reasons.  Whether or not they remain fit for working competition would surely depend on the
individual case.
