New petition
At present if a Police Officer is attacked in the line of his or her duty the offending person will be arrested for assault on that police officer. If a police dog is attacked in the line of their duty no action is taken unless damage has been caused – the arrest can only be for criminal damage. We would like to see a change in the law that of a Police Dog is attacked then the offender should be arrested for assault on that Police Dog
