K9 Fraud is an in-depth look at police dog work in the western world that defines what it means to commit K9 fraud. Along the way, Dr. Resi Gerritsen and Ruud Haak highlight the historical practices of earlier police investigators and critically assess more current cases that involve police dog evidence.
Giving a clear case-by-case understanding of the common mistakes made by dog handlers, Gerritsen and Haak draw together all the malpractices of the past into a coherent understanding of how serious K9 Fraud has become.
Police dogs are governed by standards that are not internationally regulated. This lack of parameters results in confusion as to what a dog can and cannot do, and this confusion extends to civilians, criminal inestigators, and even handlers themselves! Gerritsen and Haak emphasize the importance of training methods, scientific understanding of dogs, and the bond between Dog Handler and K9 that makes reliable police dog work successful. K9 Frand is not purely conceptual, nor is it a technical manual. It is a poignant study of a subject that is as old as our relationship with canines, and teaches a lesson that has been overlooked by so many in the field.
