I have submitted a few stories on police killing pets, I could go on and submit a lot more but I think I have made my point. What is going on with police killing pets, they are definately trigger happy when it comes to pets. What are they afraid of? So a dog barks, so what? I really don't understand their problem. I feel they need to be trained in approaching companion animals and what signs to look for if a dog is going to attack before becoming a police person. This situation is getting out of hand.
