So, Lurker would be the one on the slab?
Does this deputy know Drew Peterson?
“Barboza: “A bunch of kids just got off the bus and they were all on the street. All the kids were watching the officer shooting the dog. My heart was broken seeing an officer killing my dog.”
Reminds of the school bus scene in Napolean Dynamite where the kids all watch the farmer kill the cow.
Someone help me out here....this doesnt make sense.
I have an image of one of those armored vehicles busting down the portico of Castle Lurker, while teargas spills from the embrasures and a helicopter hovers overhead. :)
Why didn’t they just bring the dog inside? Then the deputy would have needed a search warrant to enter the house.
I thought that too but thought I read the article wrong. I would have been right there with my dog and taken him straight to the hospital I would think instead of leaving him laying out there.
Reading these comments...New material for Jeff Foxworthy?
And the dog lived..
As I read the story, the dog was originally inside; they voluntarily brought it outside.
Letting the deputy do it even after the deputy stated he didn’t need any proof shows that the owners didn’t know about their rights under the law. Something like not presenting the dog to the deputy probably never occurred to them.
It feels like we don’t have the whole story. The dog was left tied up and lived? These don’t sound like outstanding dog owners, altho perhaps I’m missing something. Of course, if the officer really did what is alleged, shame on him (and heck, it sounds like a lawsuit to me). But still, something seems odd here...

They are going to sew him up...after Thanksgiving!
There’s a lot about this story that doesn’t add up. Bad behavior on both parties, if you ask me.
Had he tried to forcibly enter my home without a lawfully constituted warrant, well.....

Killed them right as the high school kids were getting out ~ makes you kind of wonder what was really on his mind.
Good on the dog though.
Bet that changed his mind on the Second Amendment. I'd be telling the owner "take him to the range".
This is very bizarre.
Why did this man just roll over and comply without so much as any documentation?
He asked, got a non-answer, then I would’ve said “hell no; what’s up with you in the head, anyway?” and walked off. Then called the police/sheriff’s dept. myself (knowing a guy like that would likely follow and be beating down my door, screaming “resisting....!”)
I don’t see how this was possibly legal, and why he’d go along with it.
This doesn’t make sense. You would think the dog catcher would have taken him and a court would have decided to put him down or not. I sure would not have helped him tie him up though. In fact it would have been “what dog?” and Bobby and I would have been out the back door when he went to his car.

Yes, something appears to be missing here.
