Vern

[who knows what evil?]

Vern barked and ran toward the officer, prompting the shooting, the family said.

Was Vern wagging his tail? I'd bet on it.

"The family said the officer wanted to interview a neighbor and was walking across the front yards of homes on the street when the shooting happened. The Reeves family was not involved in the burglary investigation that brought the officer to their neighborhood. Vern barked and ran toward the officer, prompting the shooting, the family said."

Maybe if he had used the sidewalk and rung the doorbell, the dog would not have reacted to his trespassing. We have this problem around here with leaflet-leavers walking across lawns instead of using the sidewalks; they track weeds and mud from the worst lawns onto the well-kept ones.

I Love cops.. I have cops in my family.. Cops who Murder Innocent Dogs are Flat Out COWARDS!

I'm a 57 year old woman in poor health.. I was able to chased off a Pit Bull who was intent on ripping apart my Border Collie/Sheltie Mix.. After a Terrifying few minutes of the Pit trying (but failing) to get ahold of my incredibly brave dog, I was able to kick him in the chest with the top of my foot.. To my shock he ran off back across the street to his idiot owner..

These cops don't even try to calm down the dogs they kill.. They show no feelings.. They even kill them when they are tied up or behind a fence.. I do not understand WTH is going on in this country.. Older cops say it was Never like this before.

I have Begged Cesar Milan to offer training to police officers in how to handle dogs.. I don't know if he even tried.. Too many people give ALL cops the benefit of the doubt.. Some might be afraid to critisize authority.. Some may not have the guts to watch the videos or read the stories therefore don't know what is really going on.. They need to Wake Up! It is a War On Dogs.. It has to End!

These damn celebraties who claim to love animals so much need to speak out on this! Watch this and tell me there isn't a problem..
