From what I've seen any dogs not killed get better treatment than a human. I've witnessed a raid on a suspected drugs factory known to have dogs inside. It turned out there was two rather placid, mean looking dogs inside. In order to remove them to kennels, each dog got it's own van to transport it!!! I think it was about cubic meters of space per dog of similar.

An ex riding buddy was an armed officer- one time he had to provide armed escort to a crocodile part of the way from Kent to Scotland. I think they just had their usual firearms.

We use a shotgun and lead slug. The AFO will often take vet advice but usually its just a single shot into the head.
Standard ammo (9mm/5.56) isn't suitable.
