The practice of using combat canines for ceremonial drills like presenting flowers to greet V.I.P.s should be stopped and they must only be utilised for specific tasks of catching suspects and sniffing contraband and I.E.D.s, a panel comprising police dog experts recommended.

The specialists have suggested that a separate demo dog unit could instead be raised for performing in jamborees to entertain the audience during the regimental functions of the police and the Central Armed Police Forces (C.A.P.F.s).

Panel of experts, drawn from various state and Central Police forces apart from the Army, made the recommendation during the last two national police K9 seminars.
