I think I would suggest answer C:

Another great name I heard for our four legged chums the other night - Growling tomahawk. brilliant
I like Tasers, too. Suturing dog bites takes a while. Pulling out Taser spikes only takes a minute. Regardless, there's something about felons in pain that always makes me smile. Must be the sadist in me.
The issue of deterrants is a contentious one and your experience as a dog handler says it all. Which course of action is a criminal most likely to take? one that leads him to a comfy cell, where he will be fed and in the morning he MIGHT be told by a magistrate that he is a very naughty boy, or the course of action that will leave him in significant pain for many hours, risking potential infection and probably scarring, and possibly even the loss of function of a limb?
The one universal understanding is pain and physical detriment, and that should be the deterrant, not a hug from an apologist at the group therapy session.
That video on Copperfields blog of the dog training is awesome. Man pulled out of van window by hairy 4 legged teeth carrier, class.
Answer b. All of the above.
Why are all your police dogs trained to go for an arm? that leaves the poor creature in danger from any weapon in scumbags other hand.
Our dogs are trained to go for throat or groin. Safer for the dog, and much more effective in bringing things to a (painlessly, for us) quick conclusion.
