Credit to this officer and, apparently, to this police department for adjusting their training.

A good first step toward changing the ongoing dog shooting trend among police.

Don't know about the dog but the owner had the number 13 tatooed on his neck.

in the fwiw dept, long time ago Jake (whom I’ve posted about on FR when he died), was in the fenced in backyard when a couple of fighter jocks decided to break the sound barrier over/near our AO. He some how
got out.

Two days later, a really nice family brought him home. I tried to give them $50, but they wouldn’t take it.

Yes, agreed 100%. It’s good they were willing to admit they were not doing things correctly. Glad this doggie is OK.

Contrast this officer and dept. with the SLC police “chief” getting defensive about one of his officers entering a yard without permission and shooting the dog...and then having the temerity to lecture the public at large about “respectful manner”.

Ditto to your comments...

My brother is a veterinarian and owns a clinic in Houston. A nearby suburb, Bellaire, has some very dog friendly officers. Very often they will pick up a stray in the middle of the night, keep it in their car and when his clinic opens up in the morning they will drop the dog off.

One night they drove by and someone had tied a dog to a pole in front of the clinic so they put it in their car until morning to keep it safe from someone harming it.
Then the dog usually stays at the clinic until they can find a home for it.

I found a home for the last one with a friend of mine. All cops don't hate dogs.

I got an email at work a few years back

“Your pit bull threatened us and our dogs. You need to fence it”
Me: “I don’t have a dog. I have 4 cats. “

I knew the dog and it was the most docile dog I have ever met. He was just virtue signaling.
