A February 11, 2013 article on haverford.patch.com highlighted a recent dispute between a Haverford Township Commissioner and the Haverford Township Police Department.  The public official alleged that at a recent workshop meeting, the K-9 dog lunged at his 8 year old son from behind.  The Delaware County dog attack victim’s shirt was torn but he did not suffer any dog bite wounds.  The Commissioner had previously voted against adding K-9 dogs to the Township’s police force
