Bridgeton Police Shoot Dog in Foot
Bridgeton, New Jersey
May, 2011
Breed:Described as a Pit Bull
The burglary of people’s possessions seems to take backseat in order to report on a dog getting shot for not doing anything but “lunging” so viciously, he didn’t hurt anyone. The officer shot the dog in the foot, but the dog will be fine.

Asheville Campus Police Acts a Hero, Shoots a Dog in the Face
April, 2011 - Asheville, North Carolina
A dog described as a Pit Bull (ZOMG! RUN FOR THE HILLS) jumped out of the back of a truck where he was just chilling. Yo, dog guardian, don't be a jack ass and leave your dog untethered and unattended in the back of your truck. Problem solved.
But instead problem emerged. The dog chased some people and eventually did bite one person in the hand.
In an act of BRAVERY so amazing, an award will be made in his honor, a campussecurity police officer lured the dog away undoubtedly by waving his arm in front of the dog as bait! When the dog meandered over, the officer had to defend himself from the walking brute by shooting the dog right in the face!
The dog will live, because he is a Pit Bull and as all creepy anti-pit bull zealots tell us, they are a speshul breed!

January 2011: Hallandale Police Officer Shoots Dog
January 2011, Hallandale - Florida
While feeding his dog, described as a Pit Bull, a man heard a commotion. The dog trotted off in the direction of the sound and as he rounded the corner, encountered several officers responding to a separate call.
One of the officers freaked out and shot the dog multiple times. According to the owner, the dog was shot will running back towards his property.
Officers refused to allow the family to take the dog to a veterinarian for two hours. If that was a human being, lawsuit time! But dogs are only our friends, apparently, not worthy of any meaningful legal protection like not having to sit in a cage for two hours before being treated for potentially unnecessary bullet holes.
The dog is expected to survive.

January 2011: Omaha Police Shoot Dog Who Attacked Officer
January, 2011
Omaha, Nebraska
Police were responding to a domestic disturbance call. When they knocked on the door, they were faced with an aggressive Dalmatian. They asked the woman to confine the dog, but she opened the door further.
The dog ran out and bit one of the officers, then attempted to bite another. One officer shot the dog in the hindquarters.
When the bitten officer declined treatment, officers and paramedics were kind enough to bring the Dalmatian out on the stretch and rush her to an emergency veterinarian who described the dog as fear-aggressive. A neighbor who witnessed the attack stated that the Dalmatian's behavior fits the dog, who has a history of reacting aggressively or in fear.

November 2010: Canadian Police Use Taser to Subdue Dog
British Columbia
A dog described as a German Shepherd was apparently accidentally left at a gas station by his owner. The dog started wandering around and became agitated and aggressive, attacking/scratching several people. He bit an animal control officer as well. Instead of deploying lethal weapons, officers decided to use a taser and shocked the animal twice before subduing him. The owner then came back and, well, gee golly, they just handed the dog over to him.

October 2010: Portland Police Shoot Dog
Portland, Oregon
A man punched his girlfriend, causing significant bleeding. He was heavily intoxicated and thought he had killed the woman. So he called the police to report the "murder".
Police arrived to find two loose dogs, a Lab and a Pit Bull. The Pit Bull lunged at one of the officers and was shot. The dog was SO dangerous that he happily jumped into the back of a police cruiser for a personal trip to the vet hospital. He is expected to survive.
Oddly enough, no word on the victim - the assaulted woman.

September 2010: Crazy Cop in Detroit Shoots AT Dog 12 Times, Hits People Instead
Detroit, Michigan
Flabbergasting. So there's this chop shop guarded by three dogs described as Pit Bulls. Police wisely call in the humane society to deal with the dogs. The officers are doing fine, setting traps and getting the dogs secure when one gets loose. The dog is merely running away, but apparently one cop thinks the dog is such a threat that she shoots AT the dog TWELVE times.
She doesn't manage to hit the dog so far as anyone can tell, but she does shoot the humane society officer twice and shoots the boot of his co-worker.
