Officer shoots two dogs in fenced-in backyard

Exactly right.. They are Cowards! Way too many have killed non-threatening dogs. Seems they STILL are not getting the proper training.. Frustrating and Heartbreaking.

I'm an older woman.. My Border collie and I fought off a vicious, barking, growling, 'dog aggressive' pit bull who was within two feet of my dog and determined to get ahold of him.. It was intense.. Cars were slowing down to watch.. The Pit bulls idiot owner was watching from across the street.. I was struggling to hold my dog back while trying to be inbetween them.. When I sensed the Pit bull was about to pounce on my dog I stuck out my leg.. With that the Pit ran back across the street. I was shaking for an hour afterwards.. I wish I had it on video.. Border collies are so smart and so brave. A submissive, scared dog would have been toast.
