This leash is 10 feet long by 3/4 inch wide. The soft grip leashes are made from a synthetic immitation leather material. It has the same durability as leather, but is much stronger. The snaps on this dog leashes are made from the highest quality Italian bronze. These snaps are sewn and then pop riveted to insure the highest security available. This is very important in Schutzhund and police protection training where a broken leash can cause disaster.

Love is the newest addition to Honest Kitchen's line of grain-free dog foods. It’s complete and balanced made with dehydrated hormone-free beef, vegetables, fruits and love. It’s ideal for puppies and active adult dogs, particularly those with food sensitivities to grains, gluten, eggs and those who need a low carbohydrate diet. Like all of our diets, Love is 100% human-grade, made in the USA, and does not contain corn, soy, rice, beet pulp or wheat. Just add water for a fresh, wholesome and human grade meal.
There is a lot of talk in the dog world these days about ALL-NATURAL DIETS (AN). The purpose of this article is to explain what these diets are and the reasons why I feel everyone should consider feeding their dog a natural diet.
There is little doubt that the Police style leather muzzle is the finest muzzle money can buy. The police style muzzle offers the security and the best air flow of any muzzle on the market for a leather muzzle.
if for no other reason than the fact that most rescues have questionable temperament.
Or the original home had a questionable temperment for the dog.
The rescue I work with has a Working Dog program and many of the dogs are turned in because of temperment faults; as perceived by a family looking for a companion. The link below does a good job explaining when and how rescues and LE work together.

And I have not known of LE ever adopting a dog without testing having been done.
Of course David said all of this quite succintly with much more authority however; I want him to know I have his back.
Big ditto!
The local PD has two rescues that I know of currently "on staff," BTW.

I find it odd that a rescue organization would allow any dog, let alone one recovering from major surgery, to go to a police dept, if for no other reason than the fact that most rescues have questionable temperament.
Most rescues?
As a shelter eval person and someone who has adopted more rescues than I can count without looking through my vet records, I have to respectfully take issue with this.
"Most rescues have questionable temperament" is inaccurate, IMO and IME.
Housing changes and lifestyle changes are way up there on the "reason for surrender" list. (Loss of job/income falls under "lifestyle changes," too.) These have nothing to do with the dog's temperament.
I'm looking around at my dogs while I'm typing this. One of them ("Mr. Calming Signals" would be a good nickname) earns his keep and more by being an example dog for balanced temperament and good ob.
The others are just normal dogs.
Not a "questionable temperament" in the lot.
Of course some (maybe many!) have "questionable temperament." But I don't agree with "most."

David;
Hence my confusion about this... I'm new to working dogs, and I'M CURIOUS. I've only been to a few rescue websites. I know that the rescue that I linked to in this thread (see below), and one local GS rescue that i applied to will not consider law enforcement for the reason stated.
