FREE ARTICLE PREVIEW
Starting an action is not the same responsibility as controlling it. The phrase in this title puts that distinction in front of the handler. I expect the team to account for what happens after the first response.

THE READING RECORD
This article records my findings, observations and professional standards. No external references are cited in this edition.
I have worked as an operational K9 handler since 2009 and have seen more than 44 dogs go through our unit's program. These articles draw on that work and the feedback I bring to our K9 specialists.
References support the specific subjects for which they are cited. My operational findings are presented in my own voice. Individual medical and legal questions require the appropriate professional.
