Makes sense, because the dogs are referred to as canine officers.

And injuring one is the same crime as injuring a human officer.

Which tracks, since the dogs are actually about as bad at their job as humans. Barely any better than guessing randomly, ans used as a bludgeon against vulnerable groups. Barely better than "I thought I smelled weed"

I place all blame squarely on the police though, because the dogs don't know better.
