What the fuck. How is this not animal cruelty?

[–] PineRune@lemmy.world 101 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Animal Cruelty is basically every K9 Unit's motto.

To them dogs are not man's best friend, just a loyal tool.

Apparently that's better for the teeth? It'd be the attack training that wears them down.

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Probably not actually, especially in the long term. Crowns and veneers can lead to lots of other dental problems and the thing is, the dog doesn't have human speech to let handlers know it's in pain or having a problem right away so if they have a rotting tooth or a cracked one under the cap all kinds of things can go wrong.

I'm sure they have side effects, but I'd think that'd be better than breaking teeth.

And how is it nobody seems to have noticed the two jawbones mounted above?

[–] officermike@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't think those are jawbones. They're casts of the dogs jaws with the prepared caps test-fitted to each tooth.

That makes sense.
