If I'm not mistaken, some jurisdictions treat police dogs as a police officer with regard to assault by a perp.

If so, that's absurd. Killing a man is murder. Killing a dog may be tasteless and evil, but it is not murder. Any attempt to equate a dog, regardless of what role it has been trained to fill, with a human is abhorrant and idiotic. It is liberalism run amok. It is PETA think of the first class.
