Too much training time on this target, and not enough on the puppy targets.

Guess cop didn’t know the difference between a dog and a kid. Maybe he should go look at some more pictures to see the difference. Maybe.

O k .. Beer summit time..
If ever there was a safety issue right up a community organizer’s alley so to speak, this is it.
Please, Mr. PoliceMan, Stop shooting our kids and dogs.
Cats are on their own. :-p

There was a thing on Drudge sometime back about a family pet being shot by a cop every 98 seconds or something. Are they taught to hate dogs at the police academy?

It is still unclear as to why the officer felt the need to shoot at the dog in the first placeIt's genetic. It's been bred into them. Sort of like pit bulls. You can never feel completely safe around one.

They should prosecute him for shooting this kid. It sounds like his act was intentional.

It may not have been life threatening, but it could still be disabling because tissue damage doesn’t always heal completely, especially one so young.

In all my more than 30 years as a cop, I never once shot a dog. You just learned to deal with all the dog situations in other ways. A kick in the head, putting something between you and the dog, etc. Tossing garbage cans in their direction was my favorite, worked most of the time (of course we had metal cans back then ... the noise and all).

That cop needs to be in prison.
He saw a dog and just decided to shoot it for no reason?

It sounds like his act was intentional. Forgetting your primary mission (pursuing the robbery suspect) is inexcusable.
Dirty shoot.

Was the kid holding a Nintendo WiFi at the time???
Maybe he was the real target —

I don’t understand why cops don’t use mace.
Bicycle riders use a civilian form of machine and it works like a charm.
Bear spray will stop a grizzly.
So shooting dogs is totally evil and cops should be disciplined for doing so.
