Method acting.

Yep, 100% standard cop behavior.

Your moderately to barely trained dog acting totally normally to intimidating new people?

Potential lethal threat, the sentence is death.

Our highly trained service canine?

Well he/she's an officer of the law, so when we directly command one to attack you, you can't defend yourself because they have more rights than you do, citizen.

Anyone fact check this? Smells like bullshit coming out several days later.

Well, I checked. Yeah. It's true. Can't find many details. Seems he was wounded and later euthanized?
