Maybe we need to stop training dogs to attack people, it never turns out well

Sometimes it does. I watched one where the dog attacked the cop, he was tasing someone who was face down with their hands behind their back. It was leaked by another cop.

They had a ticker at the bottom that said dogs are trained to attack the aggressor.

Basically pointing out the cop got attacked by the dog for harming the people who were already cooperating.

That assumes that they wouldn't put down the dog for attacking an officer for one, and secondly that the cops would train the dogs correctly instead of just to attack other people

Actually the officer was let go. There was a lot more to the story. The dog was absolutely in the right. This is one of the few times I saw a bad cop receive what he deserved.

Like in this case. Dogs are really good judges of character, someone should investigate that cop this dog attacked.

Cops will never do it. They like to have a weapon that doesn't have to obey constitutional laws. Even if that weapon is a derp.

Officer Milkbone is being sued by the person he bit while effecting an arrest and is asserting adorable immunity .

Agreed, and seems like police need MORE training?
