The research questionnaire was completed by police officers who perform their daily duties in the field of police cynology — coordinators in the uniformed departments of the Regional Police Headquarters competent for the implementation of tasks related to the use and maintenance of police dogs in the uniformed branch and experts in osmological research in forensic laboratories of Regional Police Headquarters. The author describes the issues in regard to alarming statistical data, which show a significant decrease in the number of police dogs at the disposal of the Polish Police. The research was based on a research hypothesis, in which it was assumed that police dogs in today’s Polish Police are misused in the activities for public safety and order.
