Germans Ditch German Shepherds
German police are to ditch German Shepherds and replace them with a Belgian breed that is braver and smarter.
Many forces now favour the Belgian Shepherd dog, or Maliniois, instead of traditional Alsatians, say experts.
Police dog consultant Gunther Bonke explained: “They can be trained as sniffer dogs and other roles whereas German Shepherds are limited to security roles.”
