Dumbest people in charge. Actual dogs are way cheaper. And better at what they do.

But:

That won't get you millions increase in investor funding, which also lets you increase your pay-cheque
You need to buy them from actual dog trainers, which are people and will eventually stop selling to you once you either become too evil for them or you murder them
They are a supply chain risk as once you eventually piss off the dog trainer by 4x-ing his electricity bills and getting your AI to tell the govt. to shoot his family, he can then bypass the dogs using his smell, because they would be familiar with him.

Replace dog trainer with dog robot maintainer.
