[Secret Agent Man]

All dogs across the nation rejoiced at the news.

Dogs across America say: KARMA BITCHES!

Serves his sorry a$$ right.

If these clowns had run into some armed suspects they probably would have shot each other after shooting up the neighborhood. Fire discipline is the mark of a professional. Most cops today don’t know what that means.

The SFPD had a similar embarrassing incident back in 2000. The bottom line was a rookie and a senior female officer responded to a 911 call from a 11 y/o because of a threatening phone call. One of the family dogs, a English sheepdog, latched onto the female officers’ buttocks. The rookie took a shot at the dog and missed. The round ricocheted and fragmented hitting the 11 y/o in the leg and wounding his partner. It was a real cluster. Dog 1 SFPD 0

The two cops were investigating local copper thefts when they were approached by an "aggressive dog showing its teeth."

Ping for a Woooof!!! ???

The Dog was warning the Copper about the fact that he was about to injure his partner with a poorly aimed shot. Dogs know these things.

[Standing Wolf]

I’m not going to say a word about law enforcement accuracy going to the dogs.

[tbpiper]

trying to shoot what they said was an aggressive-looking dog

Chihuahuas take a little finer aim.

[I want the USA back]

The dog was not aggressive. The dog was DEFENSIVE. Protecting his master against an invasion from mean-looking men. The dog did the right thing.

(One officer — the one who didn’t end up with a bandage on his arm — pulled his gun and fired “three or four shots” at the animal.)

This is just a nonsense report. I am a former LEO/Correctional Officer who served as a weapons safety officer. How in hell do you fire 3 OR 4 shots? You either fired 3, or your fired 4. How do you not know? If you do not know how are you qualified to carry a weapon in society? How do you write a news report that says someone fired 3 or 4 shots? Do you not research? Do you not ask questions? How many bullets were in the weapon? How many where there after the shooting? This is not rocket science people...........

[SWAMPSNIPER]

They didn’t mention that the dog was laughing insanely as it ran.

[a fool in paradise]

It was an honest mistake.

Someone more skilled in photo editing than I am needs to make an “aggressive looking” dogs identification graphic.

Maybe a dog showing its belly, a dog cocking its head, a dog panting.....
