Not a "mistake". The cop DELIBERATELY went to the wrong house, and shot a dog that was RIGHTEOUSLY defending his master.

"Obviously a mistake was made, and we are definitely acknowledging that," said Lt. Ray Evers of the Philadelphia Police.

Fine. Now if the cop who killed this dog has one of his own order him to appear at the PD range with his dog and his family. The owner of the dead pet gets to kill the cops dog in front of his entire family.

Then fire the cop. Then prosecute him.

A cop who kills my Lab will have shot his last dog...or anything else.

“Oh joy, I finally get to ambush and intimidate a citizen! And KILL something!”

What’s sad is how I almost want to thank the spokesman for the rare acknowledgement of police fault, and the possibility at least of some financial compensation to the dog’s owner.

In before .... wait .... even the badge lickers and dog haters don't defend this crap anymore. I think that may be significant.

Cops just shoot dogs now. Deal with it. /sarc

If a regular citizen ‘accidentally’ shot a police dog they’d be charged with murder of a ‘police officer’.

Cops shoot your dog, too effing bad for you. Oops. Cops decide to punt your cat across the room, you better thank them they didn’t kick your ass.

The bad apples in the PD’s need to be kicked out. Thugs with badges.
