That's the sort of thing I was talking about. I wasn't suggesting they keep the retired wardogs down at the local daycare, or kindergarten playground.

Somewhere appropriate.

Also, people's taxes paid for these dogs and their training. The allocations should include providing for them after they've "served their usefulness".

Don't most of these type dogs actually have a rank? I know most police dogs do. They're treated as soldiers, while they're "useful", and like garbage, to be thrown away, when they're used up.

This has bothered me way more than I thought it would.

Hang on, I thought all Americans were anti-tax to the extent that they don't even want to pay to educate other people's children?
But English tax-payers should pay for pensions for dogs?

ETA that was s'posed to be a joke but came off xenophobic and a bit nasty, sorry.
