November 2010: Des Moines Washington Police Kill Dog Hiding in Bush

Des Moines, washington

A Newfoundland escaped from her backyard for the first time in two years. Neighbors reported she was running loose and called police. Officers arrived and felt she was a severe threat to public safety. This was due to her running away from them and sometimes barking. So then when she entered a secure yard, instead of shutting the gate and waiting for her to calm down, they cornered her in a bush and shot her four times.

June 2010 - Police Kill Dog in Washington Maryland

Washington, Maryland - Police serving a warrant for a man who hadn't lived at the property in more than 12 years ended up killing a confined, mixed breed dog. The owner of the property (grandmother to the "suspect") asked to put her dog in the backyard or bathroom. Officers told her the bathroom was fine. She complied by restraining the dog properly in the bathroom. At some point, an officer I can only describe as an idiot opened the bathroom door. When the dog barked, the officer shot the dog, killing the 13-yr-old dog.

Nothing of interest was found at the house.

Granger

GRANGER--A Granger police officer guns down a pit bull after it attacks several people.
Two women were attacked by two pit bulls Wednesday morning around West A and West Second Streets.
One dog later attacked a public works employee and even went after a police officer.
The officer shot the dog; police weren't sure how bad its injuries were.  Both dogs were impounded.
It's legal to own a pit bull in Granger, but they must be on a leash and muzzled at all times.
Police did find the pit bulls' owner.
KNDO is following this story to find out if the owner will face charges.
