Police Dog Fired For Bad Performance

A 2-year-old police dog was aimed to be the ninth member of the police
force in the Oregon coastal town of Cannon Beach, but the dog, "Cash"
just didn't have what it takes. See why the dog was sacked as reported
by Huff'Post:
The Belgian Malinois was dismissed from the force before seeing any
action or gaining any glory.
Cash was skittish, afraid of heights and had a barking problem. Noises
would scare him. When he had to jump onto counters in search of drugs,
he showed too much resistance. He would often bark aggressively rather
than go straight to the drugs.
Barking is "fine as an alert, but you can't get anything done when
you're trying to get him to find dope and he's just barking in your
face," said Officer Josh Gregory, the dog's former handler, told the
Daily Astorian ( http://bit.ly/1HCFH1x).
"That's not the temperament we wanted to set for Cannon Beach," Police
Chief Jason Schermerhorn said. Cash was returned to his original
owner, Tami Schultz of Clatsop County Search and Rescue, and the
Cannon Beach Police Department is searching for a replacement.
They're looking for a "ball-crazy, happy, wanting-to-work dog," said
Gregory, who will spend two to three weeks training with the dog after
taking it into his care. "(We) basically learn how to dance together."
The department acquired Cash after raising $27,000 for the K-9 officer
program earlier this year.
