Usually, training these dogs is expensive and unsuccessful but in prisons the results for the dogs are promising. Compared to 50% of the dogs trained by the general population being found fit to move on for further training, 87% of dogs trained in prisons met this criterion (Harkrader, Burke & Owen, 2004).
