Cops have their own laws. There's just no way a civilian wouldn't be arrested for "training" their dog this way. We all know it's copganda when they say this is training. Abuse like this doesn't work for training a dog and they know it that's why they'll arrest you for doing it this way. Dogs like any other animal including humans act out if you beat them.

This really is what happens when you give unbridled protection to security forces in your country. They act out in ways because they know they won't be punished.

Article, Bay Area cop seen hitting dog on viral video reassigned from K-9 program: https://www.mercurynews.com/2021/04/29/police-officer-seen-hitting-dog-reassigned-from-k-9-program/

Cop abuses animal and gets reassigned instead of fired, typical. They also gave the dog back to the people who they got it from even though the dog was fine to work for them. The cop clearly wasn't in the mental state of being able to train that dog. Fear drove him to beat him like fear drives a whole lot of them to pull the trigger when it wasn't necessary. Look at the LA cop who shot a man whose hands were behind his back for a recent example.

Cops will shoot your dog if it were to aggravate their K-9 dog or even approach them wagging its tail.

This is animal abuse. Plain and simple. It's criminal.
