Bruno underwent surgery for gastric bloat, which could kill a dog within hours.
Its just a dog.
Put it down.
cops have killed their own dogs in hot squad cars. did this one have an accidental discharge and shoot their own dog?
i think officer negligence that leads to death of a police dog ought to at least get the officer fired and personally pay the 35-40 grand the department loses when that trained dog dies. if we’re going to be consistent in how we go after on-cops who’injure or kill a police dog, they get a felony murder charge.
Prayers up for Bruno!
I understand that police have a history with shooting dogs without reasonable cause and leaving dogs in cars. I can state that Anaheim or any other LE department in Orange County are not among them.
Just got a message on facebook saying the surgery went well last night..Thank God this was caught early..Bruno has been through so much and when I heard the news today my heart literally sank..He is such a fighter he will pull through God Bless U Bruno
Your or my dog is barely worth a bullet to many police today. Apparently some animals are more equal than others.
