"The German Shepherd dog is the department’s choice for patrol
K-9 operations, and is usually imported from Europe.  The European breed is closely regulated, monitored, and developed for utilization as working dogs, whereas the American/German Shepherd's are highly regarded for their physical beauty.  Because requirements for police K-9’s are high, the physical demands, intelligence, courage, and loyalty make most breeds unsuitable for
police service."
