DeKalb County, GA - On Tuesday night, a DeKalb County police officer went to a family's home on Silva Court in response to a domestic dispute call.
When the officer went into the family's garage, he encountered a German shepherd who was on a chain.
Upon seeing a stranger approach, the German shepherd lunged - the officer's response was to shoot and kill the dog.
Tragically, after the damage was done, it was discovered that the responding police officer had actually gone to the wrong house.
Right now, the officer is not facing any charges - there will be an internal investigation.

“When the officer went into the family’s garage...”
What gave this stupid LEO the right to enter the family’s garage? He might not like the response if he were to do that here.

Somebody already explained that quite aptly, up-thread:
Any questions?

"Police Go to Wrong House, Kill Family's German Shepherd, Officer is Killed by Homeowner"
Future headline that might discourage trigger-happy dog-killers wearing a badge.

Illegal invaders, bearing badges or not, are the reason God helped us mere mortals invent shovels,backhoes and cheap bags of lime.
Call 9-11 around here?
Riiiight.
As for some bumbling Keystone pulling that crap on one of my GSDs...(who are always at my side or with the kiddies).
I can’t say what i’m thinking, but hell hath no fury...
So, as an outraged community, what can we do to help this victimized family?

Create a petition on behalf of the family
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/petitionfaqs.html
Inundate their local newspaper, radio and TV stations with calls.
Plaster the story all over FaceBook.
Plaster it all over YouTube.
Call the PD and speak your piece.
Let them know it’s gonna go nationwide/viral.
Start a fund drive to pay for a lawyer for them to sue the PD.
Next time the cops call you begging for money, tell them -no- and tell them -why-.

Dogs are good things and most people like them. Nothing on this planet pushes my anger button more than two or more beating down one individual, continuing the beat down when the person is down, and or those who are cruel to animals/dogs.
Many animals, especially dogs are very special and more intelligent/caring/loyal, than many realize.

You do realize that you’re telling that to a person who prefers that 99% of her “social interactions” involve conversing with living beings who can’t actually reply with words, don’t you?
