Nationwide retail theft has erupted into a $100 billion crisis. Brick-and-mortar stores have expanded theft-deterrent merchandising strategies to mitigate unprecedented losses for companies.
In New York City, 34th Street Partnership, a non-profit retail trade group serving Midtown retailers, hired a security firm that provides K-9 units equipped with handlers, the New York Post reported.
Earlier this month, the K-9 program was launched at the CVS at Eighth Avenue and West 34th Street. The pharmacies have been plagued with thefts.
“We’ve had a lot of complaints. A lot of shoplifting occurs in drugstores,” said Kevin Ward, the vice president of security for the 34th Street Partnership.

That’s racist. /sarc
His EXPRESSION:
LET ME DO MY JOB !!!!!!
how long before ny state outlaws the use of dogs for private security ... 3 ... 2 ... 1 ....
Great, now we will be pummeled with more dogs are racists claims.
Yup—there is a long history of police dogs chasing down black perps.
After a bite or two even the most belligerent suspect is crying for their mama—much more effective than stun guns.
I wish someone would have used a police dog on that 6’6” 270lb 17year old thug who knocked-out that lady teacher in Florida.
How do they get that taste out of their mouth?
A Filet Mignon?
See post 2.
“The police only use dogs that prefer dark meat!” — :-P
True.
They said one person one vote with voter ID was a return to the voter suppression of blacks in the days of the 1960s deputies with German Sheperds. Nonsense but it got sympathy.
Fools even believed “the Republicans will bring back slavery but we Democrats will protect you if you vote for us.”
Once a store owner of a jewelry store had tarantulas in the street window display case. Although known to be non deadly, the crime rate of smash and grabs went to zero. Good publicity, too.
This makes no sense! NY essentially invites illegals to come there and they give them everything from from cell phones, game consoles, free meals, and posh hotel rooms all at taxpayer expense and then they get upset when they decide they want more free stuff?
Nice try shopkeepers, but this will, as others have noted, be decried as racist and disrespectful of the shop’s clientele. I believe that Philadelphia outlawed protective glass/barriers between goods and the ‘shoppers’ for that reason.
Shop owners trying to restrict theft smacks of vigilantism!

Woman coworker before I retired was the daughter of a Detroit K-9 division deputy.
She said whenever he told the story of his beloved dog being held and deliberately slashed and stabbed in front of him by a black criminal and the dog painfully dying, he started crying again. She said it happened even years later.
The officers and their dogs get really close emotionally.
I forgot to add that the attack dogs should be deployed closer to the root source of the problem, the southern border!
“She said whenever he told the story of his beloved dog being held and deliberately slashed and stabbed in front of him by a black criminal and the dog painfully dying, he started crying again. She said it happened even years later.”
I understand totally. The human/canine bond can often be the strongest on earth, and a canine bereavement can easily hurt more than most human bereavements, especially with a large breeds dog who’s been really close to his human. Canute, my beloved Great Dane, passed about two years ago and he still lives within me.
I’m sure that poor woman agrees.
If I were her, I’d quit on the spot. Or transfer to a mostly white school district.
