They live with their blind handler, in their home.
The most obvious answer, for me, is that police dogs can respond consistently and quickly to commands. Police dogs also know their chain of command: they are not dominant. Depending on what the police dog has been trained for, they can also detect bombs, drugs, cadavers. These dogs are also trained to apprehend persons (only when told by their handler), and are trained to do so in a way that will not allow for the suspect to sue the handler/police agency.
Because dogs are pack animals. They're genetically programmed by nature to live in packs, or groups. A lone or depressed dog can die of heartache. There are many recorded cases of police dogs laying down and just dying upon the death of their police handler in the line of duty.
Most likely because they love dogs and want to be part of the police force i guess

Police canines work the same hours and tours of duty that their handlers do. Therefore, whenever the handler is off duty, so is his/her assigned canine.
When police dogs sniff crack cocaine, they are trained to react by exhibiting specific behavior that indicates the presence of the drug. This typically includes signaling to their handler through actions like barking, sitting, or scratching. The handler then uses this information to assist in the identification and search for illegal substances.
