Here in Austria, if you harm a police dog, you will be trialed the same as doing harm to a police officer, and rightly so.
Unfortunately the UK is way behind in animal laws. And animals are still seen as property here. Hopefully that will change sooner rather than later

I’m an ex HMP dog handler.....I loved all my boys I worked with & got to keep my last boy when I left a few months ago, always had my back in many many scary incidents......unconditional devotion, protection & love......prefer them to humans any day!
True statement!
Why don't British canine officers carry handguns when they're more likely to face armed assailants than regular officers?
As a German I don't understand that.
@@johnfaire2359 gun crime is not very common in the UK so it would probably be viewed as unnecessary force. A criminal with a knife vs a policeman with a gun. Officers have stab proof vests and know what they’re going into, but the dogs don’t so this law helps protect them against harm. I think if the police started to use guns it would set a weird precedent in the UK. Atm the only people with guns are criminals, farmers, and military/defence mostly.
These are sentient beings that have been trained practically all their lives to do potentially dangerous situations along with their human partners.
The more you realize that, the more this law makes more and more logical sense.
You need to put a "you will cry" warning on this film
I already cried:(
So many people could learn from the love Dog's have for humans 🐶
Wonderful video that clearly shows the bond between man and dog. These police dogs should be protected just like their human counter parts. Thank you for sharing. Love from the USA.
If Police dogs where made officers, it would be a different story but also another campain.
Thank you for your service. 🙏💗
Jess. They are officers!
I've just had to go hug my dog I'm crying so much. Thank you all for your service
I have the book and its definitely a fabulous read and very very moving.And now this short film has made me cry again.I have a German shepherd and he really is amazing.They truly are super dogs.
Stunning documentary - and those incredible police dogs are beyond spectacular. Thank you for this documentary
❤
Finn is amazing. Thank you Dave.
Damn straight. Poor Audi. What an amazing dog. What can I say about Finn. HERO.
Hope this guy was sent away for a very long time.
The offenders need to be charged the same as if it was a human police officer. An officer is an officer weather it has 2 legs or 4.
It's not an officer if it cannot consciously take an oath. For the police, the dog is just a tool anyway. And look at how they treat them, those types shouldn't even be allowed near any animals.
6 Months for cruelty to a service dog or pets, that is a bloody disgrace, it should be 10 years and named, shamed and Banned from ever keeping an Animal again, plus tagged, so if they are caught with another dog or pet, they can be detained and questioned, Give me Animals before Humans, their love is Unconditional...
@@xandervk2371 Absolutely not how the handlers see them though. Believe me, we had an ex-handler come to cadets once and speak about his experience. How his dog saved his life but was killed by the criminal in the process and forever traumatised him. Its safe to say the only reason people become dog handlers is to work with the dogs and care for them, since its not too easy to become one
Holly, this made me cry buckets all over again. Lovely film, well made. #FinnsLaw part 2.
Nice short film, something with more substance than a lot of things on TH-cam.
I am glad I live in the UK where these people tend to only have knives, that is bad enough.
6 months is too short, if they are prepared to do that to a dog they will not having any trouble doing it to a person
Very touching short film, keep up the good work Holly + all service animals
I have been awed by PD Finn since the story broke on (BGT?) and follow you on twitter. I am in SA but avidly follow you both and the progress with Finns law from start to now ... you have made a huge difference in the world PD Finn. So sorry that you had to suffer so much first .
What a great cause. Salute Finn!
I think this law should take place for all animals not just for trained police dogs
Wonderful! Great job ❤❤❤ 🇭🇲
This is incredible! This has been shared around my forces networks and is getting amazing praise! You should be proud! X
Wow. I can’t imagine the sorrow and rage - watching scum bag try to kill a service dog...they are heroes in my opinion capable of feats humans cannot do.
I am helping raise a 3 year old Silver Lab who seems as athletic as a German Shepard and I can imagine her putting herself in harms way for me (I’d do the same for her!). Animals can Love and express emotions but they have an innocence beyond human nature. They become as close as blood family and I believe when we lose them it teaches us how to grieve. Also I’ll never forget the special bond I had with my cat of 21 years and all he brought to my life - I got through his passing by remembering all the amazing time we had together. I am not taking for granted this time I have with my present Canine companion ❤️🐕 she is Amazing. What would life be like without animals?
i love dogs ....... they make us better than we think we are ............ humans unfortunately on the most part don't know this ...... big respect to these dogs and there handlers... i think dog police are my favourite police now :)
What an inspirational animal Finns amazing 🙏
Crying watching the video. Love to all dogs especially working dogs.
Bestest and bravest doggo Finn
Love Our Police ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. Staffordshire Police 😊
My joy that they’re seeking real penalties in violence against service animals is tempered by my frustration that they don’t allow police to have guns in England. How absolutely stupid. Audi and Finn might not have had to go through any of that if these cops were properly armed.
Unconditional love and suoport.
I dont want dogs to be used for peace keeping, no one would ask ` a child, yet we sacrifice dogs. I'd rather see a human hurt than a dog. Well done Finn and thank you for putting yourself in harms way to make this law happen. Why are we using dogs to protect humans? Why??
5 years punishment for stabbing a dog is too lenient.
Here in the USA harming a police dog can get you shot.
When you work along side your dog, dogs you build a far closer bond than when you're just a dog owner.
They pretty much speak to you through there actions.
Sounds daft to some people but you really do have a greater connection.
An one that harms a dog intentionally should suffer the harshest penalty.
Put in a room with the owner for an hour. 🤬👊
The bestest of Good Boi’s❤️
Love this.
Real wolf dog. Guess there are other ones too but these dogs are best police dogs.
God Bless Finn's The GSD !!! :)
How about we stop putting innocent animals in between us and bad people? Spend more time and effort training officers to handle firearms. By the time violent measures like a dogs teeth are justified, so are firearms.
Dogs: more highly evolved than homo sapiens.
if someone harmed my police dog, that suspect will shot by me!!
Agree ❤
4/23/2021.... 28 people don't want to be attacked by a dog while committing a crime... Animals are essential in law enforcement. believe it or not, Police are interested in public safety... Dogs are too.
Why would you let a trained dog straight into two weapons that are going to definitely hurt him???????
those fuzzy tennis balls aren't good for our doggies, i use the smooth neon orange plastic hockey balls no fuzz can be injested
Is it just me or was the second guy on AGT or BGT? I swear it was then that were on there.
How does that happen with the human cop right there
They ask you to stop kindly❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Don’t know what it’s like on your side of the pond but in the US the cops here kill over than 25 dogs a day.
Would like to watch this without the drumbeat in the background playing
Why is stealing someone's dog classed the same as stealing someone's phone, law needs changing dogs our baby phone is replaceable
A wonderful documentary about #FinnsLaw.

Why do you send the dog in when he has a knife and bottle.
You know he will get stabbed.
CRUELTY 06:59 POOR SWEETHEART BEAUTIFUL ANGEL - All Dog Lovers cry with You Dog and love You ! This work for the Police - not for Dogs - USE ELECTRONICS INSTEAD OF DOGS - THERE'S HIGH TECHNOLOGY - IT'S THE XXI CENTURY ! Love Dogs like You love Yourself, comfort them, understand them, and always help Dogs. * Place human-dog friendship and great love above everything, in first place. STOP KILLING DOGS. * BAN breeding Dogs. Forbid Dogs euthanasia. BAN poisoning Dogs. STOP HIGH KILL SHELTERS. STOP KILL SHELTERS COMPLETELY. Animals must be with only those, that can provide them with the best care and real love.
Dogs are the most tortured animals in the world. Every year, millions of dogs are thrown out into homelessness. They are needlessly bred, mistreated, tortured, killed through homelessness and by pervert caretakers who breed dogs for sale or for food, leather, fur. BAN CRUELTY TO ALL DOGS. THE LAW MUST BE CHANGED. Ban using Dogs to fight. Stop chaining Dogs. Ban leaving Dogs outside in Winter and bad weather - Dogs must be with the best Caretakers in loving homes. Dog Lovers must do more, even with giving opinion.
Dogs that are not wanted should be put down with morphine, if they cannot be put for adoption and taken by very loving persons.
Ban dog breeding. Dogs should live up to 100 years, like the Dingo's in ecological and clean nature, where soil, water, air and food were pure.
Almost all shelters should be closed, except a few that are government approved and sponsored to preserve the species, and where the dogs will be bred in very small amounts for the pure love of the species - not through rape that is done by most breeders, or even forcing dogs to mate, or in-vitro which is also forcing to breed. A loving owner does not have to sterilize his pets because his/her care is so good that mating is not allowed. Sterilization is against nature, it's very painful, deprives the body of needed physiology, hormones, deprives the body of a natural way of cleansing itself and accelerated aging, also causes psychological changes that are unnatural. Dogs were since thousands of years humanity's friends around the world, among all the other animals. Within the last decades, in literature, within scientific circles, among artists and also among common folks - dogs are being treated as best friends and loved the most.
Stop using Dogs and all other animals for testing in labs. * What happened with this sweet Dog, and all these other Dogs, and what will happen ? Sweethearts and beautiful all Dogs ! OUR DOGS ARE OUR CHILDREN, OUR MOST BELOVED FAMILY - CHECK ON ALL ADOPTIONS ALWAYS ! All channels, organizations, should check on their Dogs ( rescued, adopted, having, showed...). Wishing You sweet Dog, and all Dogs, loving forever hearts, good homes and the best Caretakers. SWEETHEARTS AND BEAUTIFUL ALL DOGS ! WE LOVE OUR DOGS MORE AND MORE EVERY DSY, ALSO THE OLDEST SENIORS !
Every dog at home, must have a litter box accessible at all times, because this is the animals health, it suffers without it, and this is a cause of pains and ailments which become more severe over time. Almost all owners mistreat their dogs, ordering them to hold their needs and relieving themselves only when it is convenient for them. The dog is the only animal in the world, that man forces to relieve itself only when it is proper for him/her, which is unacceptable abuse. A dog must clean its body as often as it needs, by itself and whenever it needs it. A dog is the only pet friend kept at home that cannot - is not allowed to - relieve itself at home. When we take a dog home to be our friend - and all dogs should be treated as such - it needs, close to its bed, a litter box. Especially when it is older or sick, because it can have more than one bed at home, depending on the apartment/house size. These places must be dry, warm and clean, but not hot or cold, not where there are chemicals. The bed must be well washed and very well rinsed to not leave any chemicals, like for small babies. It is not understandable, and not forgivable, that people keep dogs at home without a litter box, and they say that they love dogs and that dogs are their friends. Many people abuse dogs and even throw them out on the street (make them homeless), because dogs can't keep their needs and relieve themselves at home at some point. Some even have their dogs put down for this. That's why many dogs that suffer, because they cannot relieve themselves at home, and suffer pains, have difficulties with breathing, and increasing ailments - can sometimes vandalise things at home, are restless, howl, cry or lie and cannot move.
A doggie toilet can also be a canalized shower tray/shower base. Dogs should never use a human toilet, because it is dangerous for them, not only difficult. Respect their abilities.
Remember that a dog feels like a person - suffering, pain, the need to relieve itself, it needs to go out and get fresh air and movement. It needs to be able to move at home and outside, and be safe. People are responsible for their safety.
A dog must have drink as much clean water, as it needs. A dog cannot eat only food that is made specifically for dogs, especially low quality, because it will get very sick. No irradiated foods. Avoid artificial preservatives, flavoring, colorants.
A dog owner eats more than one meal per day, and they are balanced for nutrition and taste. Everyone needs a balanced diet for health and taste, no one can withstand the same kind of food, all the time, which not only is disgusting, but also causes ailments. The dog is forced to eat what it is given by its owner, but it should be able to always pick, to always have a choice of variety.
Love dogs, because they deserve it. Take care of them very well. Remember, that dogs are dogs, that they have their specific needs and their ways of being, of their species. Since hundreds of thousands of years, people all around the world, treated Dogs as their best friends and dearest household members. Never use dogs for sex, it must be forbidden.
Scientists talk about growing meat on shelves (production for testing purposes has successfully begun) - of many animals - which would be the best for our world today, because there won't be animal killing, which is barbarian and very painful. This would be most humane. The world needs such technology, which would be not only most humane but also ecological. 🐕🐾 🌷🌷🌷 People who rescue dogs and other animals are really great. We appreciate your sacrifice. Many people love a dog like a dearest person, like a best friend. Best Wishes! 🐕🐾 🌷🌷🌷
never hurt a dog

They are loyal ...or deeply conditionable ?
Don't forget that pedigree dogs have been selected (eugenics) for decades or centuries to match these behavioural characteristics ... all for the sole purpose of satisfying us, humans.
The blind spot in this statement (which celebrates the recognition of violent crimes against police dogs) is this: in the name of what ethics do we allow ourselves to use and condition these beings?
Even though these dogs may seem to show some pleasure in working this way, they are 100% the result of our tampering (they are sentient beings that we bring into existence to exploit them, either at work or emotionally, by selecting them, by taking them away from their families at a very young age, by asking them to over-adapt to our human lives 24 hours a day, by often asking them to do things for us or to solve our problems, etc.).
From a biological point of view, and despite all the attachment we may develop for them, we must recognise that they are genetic monsters (as are all farm animals). And that they exist ONLY because we exploit them (for their faculty, their meat, their milk, their fur,...) ...whereas we could just as easily solve our human problems between humans without bringing these animals into the world to do it for us, to suffer for us, to die for us.
This is why we say "beware of those who work for animal welfare"... these measures - which legally reinforce a situation by making it more viable, more livable - are often taken above all to give us humans a good conscience, and above all not to question the situation more deeply.
The subject of this film is therefore ...ambiguous.
PS. Audi doesn't care about the rewards. It is the ego of its master that is boosted.

There’s something in my eye. Should also protect dogs shot by law enforcement
You can clearly communicate with dogs 🐕 if you learn a monogrammar language.
The simplest possible language is a monogrammar ☝ language 📜. The grammar rule ➊ of a sentence existing is all the grammar needed. 😆
Directly translating a monogrammar ☝ language 📜 into the non-monogrammar ❌☝ languages 📜📜📜 humans 👥👥👥👥 have results in gibberish 😵💫.
Thus, in order to translate a monogrammar ☝ language 📜, you need to know a monogrammar ☝ language 📜.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyway, the point is, it is useful for communicating across intelligence classes 👤🐕🌲👽🤖📜, as it is modular, and easy to start learning. It can also be used as a reference for understanding common human languages. 😆
It is also impossible to reach the conclusion of monogrammar ☝ incrementally for you 👈. Due to how your common language(s) 📜 fundamentally work ⚙. This makes pre-planning the only method to detect 📡 monogrammar ☝ for you 👈.

We don't deserve dogs........ such wonderful beings. Angels on earth
Guardian Angels ! I'm not law enforcement but Fred is my service dog.
Why I ended up with tears on my face? One thing I know for sure is dogs are real angels and one of the best gifts that a human can have entire life.
5 years is not nearly enough. I say life sentences...
Incredible. Hope this is being shared with police service communities across the world. Here in Canada, our canine and mounted (equine) partners must be woven into the fabric of law enforcement.
Sod vabric! Try
Skin.Regards, ENGLAND 🇬🇧
Saw a lady on a US K9 video .She is working to provide every dog with a padded coat to lessen damage. More and more dogs are benefitting from these .Finn's law + should be mandatory .Each dog is a serving officer ...Great video and will look for the book ..Good luck to all
As a dog lover from the moment i was born i can say from my experience dogs loyalty better than any living creature.❤️
Sorry for bad english.
Yes to any law that protects animals!
I have been awed by PD Finn since the story broke on (BGT?) and follow you on twitter. I am in SA but avidly follow you both and the progress with Finns law from start to now ... you have made a huge difference in the world PD Finn. So sorry that you had to suffer so much first .
❤.Finn had Talent
Respect ❤
Awesome video.. I believe a dog's life is just as valuable as human life ( especially working dogs ).
Every dog lover knows the real pain when we lose our companion... yet we keep loving and raising more.
My life wouldn't be complete with my girls ( Layla and Mia )!
Let's extend that law to everyday life!
My favourite breed by far....
Have always rescued and rehomed German shepherds.
And absolutely adore my current boy who's almost 10 and the only German shepherd lve had as a pup since he was 8 weeks old!
Couldn't imagine my life without my little man...❤
Sounds like clear cut cruelty sending an unarmed dog up against an armed nutjob who is obviously going to seriously injure the animal. The handlers are at least 50% to blame.
Exactly!!
My neighbour has a GSD working line dog, and she just love's 2 things.
Running fast! And of course her ball
I train these amazing dogs daily.. they are so incredibly smart. I love them so much!
Finn is an Angel. God Bless you Finn. Thank you Canine Officer for your love and sacrifice.
Àudi too😊
Finn deserves a medal for bravery for saving the pcs life. Well done Finn❤️💋
❤
😂❤
Finn had a Law 2016❤
Get in the fight. Don't send your K9 partner to do your job. TEAMWORK.
we need this in the us and also extend this to service dogs i have been attacked trying to stop someone from kicking my service dog
We do have this for all police dogs
I think he’s talking about his personal service dog, not a k9 pupper
Good job Finn! Love from America! I hope Finn's law is enacted across the globe.
@Summerdee223. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is a very moving film that people need to see. I'm a supporter of Finns Law and pray that Finns Law part 2 goes through speedily. A great documentary!
Rock on!
THE ATTACKER DISLIKED THE VIDEO
Indeed , I agree 1000000%
Sobbing here.
The commitment, compassion and love for these amazing beings is incredible. No words, just tears.
Hail Finn and your wonderful ward.
Everyday I am blessed and lucky to be alive thank you TROOPER!!!………my forever hero
Why don't canine officers wear vests???
Some do in some City districts of Canada, not sure about other countries, most do not to allow the animal to move in tight spots and 90% of the time people freak out and put arms up and scream for the dog to get off, back away etc...it’s a rare thing for a criminal to actually attack the dog, the dogs grab and tug a person off their feet etc...it’s far faster than you think
Deeply touched.
There is no human bond that could ever compare to the bond with your dog !
umm a mother and child?
SeamHead33 totally different.
@@bunnyrabbitshavehats tell that to the OP
True
@@SeamHead33 the bond is totally different. The child will eventually leave the mother to lead a life of their own, the dog will stay by your side and even give their own life in an instant without hesitation.
Another excellent one - and I also appreciate the content and subject from a personal level. Thanks for the wonderful moment.
Im glad there is mention of the phycological inspiration the handler gets from his canine partner, shows the depth of the relationship is more than a physical force. I love working with animals. So much easier to predict and easy to just be around.
Here in New Zealand it is a criminal offense to harm a police dog. I wish the penalties were a lot higher but I'm relieved that the dog's right to safety is legally recognised in this country.
44C Killing or injuring police dogs
(1)Every person commits an offence and is liable on summary conviction to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 2 years or to a fine not exceeding $10,000 or to both who kills, maims, wounds, or otherwise injures a police dog without lawful excuse.
(2)On the conviction of any person of an offence against this section, the Court may, in addition to any penalty imposed, order that person to pay to the Commissioner a reasonable sum for-
(a)The treatment, care, rehabilitation, and retraining of the police dog; and
(b)Where it is necessary to replace the police dog, the acquisition and training of its replacement.
It’s wild to me that they aren’t treated as an officer not simply a Dog. In the US if you were to hurt a police dog you’d receive the same charge as if you attacked a police officer.
Thank you for this wonderful documentary. Once these amazing dogs are trained by their human colleague & ally, they should be considered 'full partners.' What they are willing to do is at least 50 percent of the team work involved in stopping a violent offender. "Good boy, Finn! Enjoy the years to come with your caring and loving mate!"
❤
They love like no other and will hold the line forever .
God Bless Them All
Who is the sad soul who would dislike this ?
Probably a criminal, or their family, who does not want to face a police dog or who likes attacking horses.
Or someone's who's own dog was harmed by the police and disliked the hypocrisy of a law like this that does not compel the police to treat every one else's dogs with the same respect.
wer einen Diensthund tötet oder verwundet, sollte sich noch glücklich schätzen, wenn er für viele Jahre in ein Gefängnis eingeliefert wird - und ich hätte alles verständnis, wenn er den weg dahin nicht schafft.
Using dogs and horses in law enforcement is what exposes them to harm in the first place. They have no choice, if you want to protect dogs, keep them out of harm's way. Defining any attack on service animals as NOT self defense is a ridiculous solution.
Here in California I'm fairly certain that attack on a Police service dog is the same as attack on a Police officer. Has been for awhile.
Damn it, my eyes keep getting water in them while watching this.
Wonderful story! Finn is a beautiful dog, thank you for telling his story. Jeanne Finn Dawson
The first step towards recognising there rights of animals under our care, thanks
Mans best friend for a reason
Why didn't the dog have a stab proof vest
@@The.Hawaiian.Kingdom i think your forgetting why we even have dogs and hiw they even came to exist ? Man domesticated wolves to assist and work with humans .Not all dog breeds are couch potatoes.This dog is born to work its doing what it loves
Finns awesome fantastic spectacular special Finns
Famous police dogs
A great film well done
