I take it he’s not a cop.
Had a Doberman once. Ears just like him. But it co$t me $$ to have his ears look like that. But Mark Cochrane came by them natural like.
The ASPCA kills more dogs than than Clinton has had flirts in his whole life.
I certainly don't support abusing animals, but seriously, doesn't the Reston Police Deapartment have anything more important to spend a year and God only knows how much money investigating than some guy that decided to give him dog the "Old Yeller" treatment?
I’m 64. I can’t count on both hands the number of pets I’ve had to put down in my life time.
This is a strange culture that has laws protecting non-humans that are not the property of others. Just weird.
Wow. Spend tens of thousands of tax dollars to prosecute a man for killing his own dog.
What is next? Prosecute a farmer for killing his own livestock?
The dog owner did not dispose of the dog properly, that is true. But simply killing an animal should not be considered animal cruelty. If it were, all animal shelters should be convicted of animal cruelty on multiple counts every week.
Old Yeller had to be euthanized by his master. A real tear jerker.
I don’t know the reason for the killing of this particular dog. But one shouldn’t jump to conclusions
When the owner is uglier than the dog that he killed, we know why it happened
When did it become against the law to kill one’s own dog in a humane manner? Or was the alleged offense the discharge of a weapon in the wrong place.
It is not illegal to kill your own dog. It is illegal to arrest a man for a non crime.
So, I see with a decent lawyer a cop or two doing time. (most likely time off with pay) because justice is in the hands of the powerful, not the law these days.
Holy Crap. That’s actually a law.

Fairfax County makes no distinction between trash and a companion animal.
