If a private citizen entered someone's back yard, woke up the dogs and shot one of them because it attacked him, that person would be facing criminal charges. These cops were trespassing without a warrant and should be charged and convicted, not only for trespassing but for killing someone's dog without cause.

Why were they sneaking around in the backyard in the first place?

“Why were they sneaking around in the backyard in the first place?”

Clearly, it wasn’t in pursuit of the suspect.

They were looking for dogs to kill.

Moreover, how does one “try to taser” anything?

“Loomis says the officer first tried to taser the animal to get him to release his grip. When that failed, the officer shot the dog twice.”

Is “trying to taser” like “a little bit pregnant”?

The cops may find themselves in trouble under Ohio’s trespass laws:
