I'll just say this. If you name your pet after liquor, I'm automatically assuming you're trashy. Police were there to investigate a dog biting incident, and I somehow doubt these 4 are faultless.
based entirely on that trashy ass pet name.
I realize I'm inviting down votes as well, but, ignoring the dog's name, did he actually bite someone? If so, I can understand why the police were there and that is different from officers randomly barging into an apartment and shooting whatever dog happens to be around (which is a great story to stir people up and get clicks). Though it is still odd how it was handled, I would expect an animal control officer to be first to make contact with the dog's owners. Not to go straight to shooting the dog?
Agreed.
So you didn't read the article, then.
No I can't seem to get it to open, which is a problem on my end.
Are the police the correct organization to handle a potential dog bite?
At least where I live, animal control falls under the police department. Could be different elsewhere.
Do you want to pay more money to make another organization who can or even more money to fire, reorganize, and train an entire county first response system?
Can I have both?
Yes, alas, nobody ever wants to pay for it lol.
And also a thing that happens all the time.
