Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
If I understand your statement correctly, you have not described any crime.

New officers go through a period of on the job training called Field Training. Experienced officers with specialized training take new officers and teach them how to employ the things they learned at the academy in the real world. This is also a time when the new officer is closely watched in an effort to determine if they are a good officer/person or if they should be terminated because they are unfit for the job.

Any misdemeanor offense can carry a penalty of three months. So, pretty much anything from driving with a suspended license to shoplifting to punching his wife.

I'm not sure what you are asking when you say "what's the policy." Federal law establishes how the government controls immigration. The executive branch (the president and his administration) is responsible for enforcement of the law.
You have several problems going on right now. Among them are:
1. Few presidents of either party have taken a serious stab at securing our borders.
2. The current president, through design or sheer foolishness, is making no serious effort to enforce the laws on the books.
3. A 2008 law significantly expanded the "rights" of an illegal alien OTMs under a certain age to stay in the US. Look at the numbers of under age illegal OTMs and you will see the numbers have skyrocketed every year since.
4. Children and others, once they make it into the country, are being temporarily held in detainment camps. These camps have inhumane conditions, and the executive branch is keeping the press, clergy, charities and even members of Congress from entering them.
5. Mexican drug cartels are the primary human traffickers along the border. They routinely fire on Border Patrol agents and local law enforcement offcers with small arms, up to and including .50 caliber machine guns. Some of these guns were trafficked to the cartels through a ATF program called Fast & Furious, which has resulted in the deaths of dozens (if not hundreds) of foreign nationals, and at least one Border Patrol agent.
6. The executive branch is shipping illegal immigrants to various parts of the nation and refuses to tell the press or Congress where, claiming the rights to privacy of the illegal immigrants.
7. Many local cities and counties are required to accept the illegal immigrants due to a clause in block grant fundung provided by the federal government.
So, the situation with illegal immigration has been a long time in the making. I don't care if you are a supporter of Bush, Clinton or Obama - none of them have bothered to secure our borders.

Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. If they allow it, they will describe the process.

All use of force, including a dog bite, is governed by federal and state law. There can be civil and/or criminal repercussions for the unlawful application of force. Graham v. Connor (490 U.S. 386 (1989)) is a landmark case that is instructive on this issue. http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=US&vol=490&invol=386
