Not really as using the same argument, HUMAN OFFICERS are legal entrapment.
Police dogs aren't wild beasts we release on people, they're trained animals that can obey commands. If the suspect in question surrenders BEFORE the dog reaches them, the dog WON'T attack and will probably just wait by the suspect till the officer comes to arrest them.
As for how an armed suspect reacts, would same armed suspect NOT resist an unarmed officer walking over to arrest them?
Dogs have been a natural partner to humans for CENTURIES so I don't get this sudden 'they're creatures we can't control' argument?
There are plenty of documented incidents where police K9s would not release their bite when commanded. Whether it's inadequate breeding selection, officer/K9 training deficiencies, or just the nature of the animal is up for debate. But controlling an animal trained to attack is not as cut and dry as you've portrayed it here.

It is compared to human cops, had more issues with those than dogs..
That's not true. They generally attack anyway and have little control. They often bite and attack police as well.
