Perhaps someone can explain to me how a *cop* gets to leave a dog in a parked car in the summer? I’d, rightly, be arrested for animal cruelty.

Because K9 unit vehicles are modified for the dogs.
They are climate controlled at all times and the better ones even have alarms that go off in case the car malfunctions, leaving the dog with no heat or AC.
The K9 officer I talked with one night was sweating to death on duty outside the car and his GSD was lounging in comfy cool splendor in the car on her bed with food and water in specially mounted bowls.

They make fans for the back of policecars for K9s, but it still seems a bit dangerious for the dog. They have a higher body temp than humans and no real way of getting rid of the heat.
A cop ‘forgot” his dog here in Pittsburgh last year and the poor dog ended up frying in the back of the patrol car.

Cops shoot dog not bothering them, or while trespassing on citizens’ property, no problem.
If this guy would have shot this police dog attacking him, he’d be up on murdering an officer charges.
