I heard an account (a few years back) about a K-9 that had some ribs broken from being kicked very hard by a very bad man. Apparently after that incident the dog's confidence was severely shaken and I understand they were in the process of trying to "rebuild" the dog.

Have you guys ever seen a K-9 take some blows in an altercation and then be hesitant in its next series of bite work? What did you do or what would you do to resolve it?

Thanks.
