That is very wrong. I can’t believe they thought this would ever fly. You can’t just take a person’s pet away and kill it all because it “could” turn bad. That being said I think there should be stiff penalties for all owners of large, or otherwise potentially aggressive dogs if they do not restrain the dog at all times (make sure it cannot escape yard)thus making neighbors afraid to even walk down their own street.
Apparently they thought no one would notice this sneaky little pogrom.
