Bottom line is, if you love your dog and the police come onto your property, put your dog on a short leash, especially if your dog is a pitbull or looks like a pitbull.
But actually, this wasn’t “police” on HER property. This was off-duty neighbor cop who happened upon this dog, apparently in public (not sure).
I wish all sides here would get that straight - this was not a man acting in cop capacity, just as a person with a gun.
To me it sounds he far overdid it, cop or not.
Bottom line: police have even shot leashed (or chained) dogs on their owner’s property. That has been repeatedly documented here on Free Republic.
