That's when Josie got loose.

The owner should be cited for her trouble.

As a former LEO, and without some evidence of extenuating circumstances, I would say the officer was out of line.

While OC spray doesn't affect all dogs, it does deter most.

A witness to the shooting (Mercer) who is not a former owner of the dog corroborates the dog owners' accounts.

Unless the shooting officer can articulate why he feared for his life when a non-growling non-barking dog was deemed a threat to his life, he should be charged with animal cruelty and dismissed.
