    If it were an official way to train dogs then it would be a nationwide scandal. However, the handlers can always train them in their own time. After all, besides a K9 being a partner, they also live with their handlers. I wouldn’t be surprised if some handlers have done just that - to alert on a subtle (subtle enough) physical queue or even command, like “Search buddy” instead of “search go.”

      I know a guy who is a K9 handler for the police force. He runs a security camera company and uses his customers footage to track people in police chances and such. He also was given a restaurant and a manufacturing plant that produced masks during covid. Dude did security cameras for a company I worked at and pulled out his police officer pistol to show it off just like about everything else my comment mentions. I don’t think he should have a gun or a police trained K9, but maybe that’s what qualifies him…
