Do the K-9 get paid?

Post by angelusbr »

I mean, is it a job with salary, vacation, etc. or is it more like a volunteer work?

*turns to look at Angelus, wearing a fancy evening robe, a fez, and smoking a pipe* That is a very good question. My guess would be that they get paid, though not too much.

They get paid in treats and food :P

Naw, but, yeah, I think so, pets get allowance, after all.

I daresay they get a money income. How much, it's a mistery...

They do get paid, but I doubt it is anywhere near what it should be. :lol:

I am sure that they also get perks like free medical care as well.

Ask That guy with the glasses reference FTW.
I wondered that because I doon't think it was ever mentioned in the comic or the forum and I also remember that it was said somewhere that the pets have much less rights than the humans do, so I guess their salary/wage must be half (or maybe less) than human police recieve.

I don't think they get paid. Their service in the police is more like a voluntary since pets have no legal rights to have a job and earn money.

I think they get compensated in another way besides money, like with treats or better comfort. And if it does involve money, I think the cash goes towards the pet's owners.

I would assume at the very least they would get paid some money which would go to the owners.

I really have no idea if they do or not. It could easily be either way. If they do receive payment, it's probably not much, I'd say.

I would say it is somewhat like our world, except better, but not yet the level of a human police. (And probably won't.)

I would think their owners are given any pay, and the owner would be trusted to somehow compensate their pet.

I don't think their owners get the money. It wouldn't be fair towards them. They went to academy and they work hard.

Well remember Pets don't have many rights in the first place and may not have a legal right to be directly paid. But it could be possible they do get the money directly we really don't know. I just find it very unlikely they wouldn't get paid something even if its just a small fund for general up keep of the pets given to the owner.

But again, I I think it depends of the state. Remember when Fido and the others arrested Joel/King? In their state, Pets can read the rights of the criminals.

Everytime they find the criminal, they get a Scooby Snack.

It would be more logical if they gained that when they found a clue, don't you agree?

Since there are usually more clues than delinquents this proposal would probably blow their budget, so either they organize an additional cake bazaar or they can scrap that.
