I read a few of them and found it to be childish! I was a K-9 officer in the Air Force and it is a little surprising that this dog would chase a deer, our dogs would not have ever done that, a simple command of HEEL and it would have returned immediately? The thing is though with this dog, it appears to be trained for tracking and narcotics, not attack so that would make a big difference in the commands. When training an attack dog it is imperative that he responds to OUT or Heel, a lot of people would be bitten otherwise? Our dogs were almost all trained in attack, drugs or bombs and tracking, very few were trained only drug or bomb? My first thought when I read that people were hunting for them is that is not a good idea but the news article does state he is docile and will come to strangers?
