patrol dog
Guard animal partner
A patrol dog is a dog trained to assist police or security personnel in law enforcement duties—tracking suspects, searching buildings, crowd control, and apprehending fleeing individuals.
Unlike detection dogs trained specifically for narcotics or explosives, patrol dogs are general-purpose working animals: The patrol dog chased down the suspect and held him until officers arrived.
