The trouble with most of the K9 crowd is that they only want to see dog work their way, so that's what the police doggy mags give them. The forensics people leave it all in scientific papers, which are mostly $30 or more a pop and full of scientific jargon! The prosecutors want the judges to believe what the K9 people say. The defense lawyers want it all thrown out as junk science. The judges mostly listen too much to one side or the other. Ensminger's Police and Military Dogs goes to the center of all this and gives you a balanced picture, where dogs are useful in solving crimes, where they aren't, and where they could be but aren't because everyone stays in his own trench and ignores how to do it right. Why hasn't this been done before?Police and Military Dogs: Criminal Detection, Forensic Evidence, and Judicial Admissibility
