Owners Angry After Cops Shoot Dog in Backyard
NBC ^

Posted on 09/09/2011 11:13:55 PM PDT by Borough Park

-snip-

But Samuelson's neighbor, Fernando Perez, said he told the cops several times that Ozzy was roaming in the back.

When the security alarm system at the home went off, Samuelson called Perez to check it out while she made the 20-minute drive to her house, he said. Perez said he knew not to go into the backyard because of the dog and when officers arrived, he warned them.

"'Be careful. It’s a big dog,' I told them. They told me to go back to my house," said Perez, who repeated the warning several more times. "Before I get to my driveway, I hear the two shots. They walked into the backyard with the guns in their hand. Then they ran from the backyard like they were scared or something."

Samuelson said she got Ozzy to protect the house and deter thieves. Police have not said what triggered the alarm.

"He was our protector," Samuelson said. "He’s a huge part of our family."

I don’t know if he enjoys it or not, really.

He just stands there, dutifully stock-still like a soldier in formation.

I think he might enjoy the part where I deep massage the shampoo into his fur but it’s hard to tell.

He did get lather on his lips and to my surprise, when I shoved my shirt sleeve in front of him and said “OMG....wipe that off on this!”, he *did*....LOL

Taking him back to the pack is hysterical.

He makes *everybody* -smell- him...whether they want to or not.

Society is such that dogs are generally liked.

Most people would be horrified at the thought of killing a dog.

“Turn off” that ingrained inhibition and it becomes progressively easier to kill “other lovable things”.

I seriously doubt the German recruits were too happy about killing women and kids, in the beginning.

True but I’d bet you they get away with it.

After all, the only witness is dead and even if he weren’t, he couldn’t testify on his behalf.

It’s almost too perfect.

It should make you feel good that they let him skate on the serious charge so he could keep his cop gig. That is, the next animal to experience this cops attack could be you or some small child.

Yea really, I got three labs and while not mean, will go after (to play or attack) anything that moves in my yard, as some neighborhood cats and critters have found out the hard way.

People will be mobbed and gang tackled (its the way they play). Can’t swear they won’t bite strangers doing something they aren’t supposed to.

There was a time I would have disagreed with you. I now avoid all cops at all cost.

Because the backyard is more secluded and offers more shelter to hide the break in. My front yard is wide open and anyone trying to break in would be seen clear as day.

My 3 labs ensure that no one tries the backyard route.

Just curious but are your dogs deaf or blind, cause my dogs hear people long before they even get near the fence and start barking (which would stop most idiots from even attempting to try the run across the yard).

If anyone did drop over the fence they would promptly be mobbed and gang tackled at best by the pack. I can’t flat rule out any biting.

My suggestion in NOT to try to prove your point with any ole dog. Could be painful!

Well by golly, then I’d say that any good dog is a support dog. I like it.
Thanks.

Your continued ignorance and inability to read a post is overwhelming. Look up the word “supposed” as it is used in conjunction with the word “to”.
As I earlier stated; you have no clue what you are talking about. Further discussion with you is a waste of bandwidth.

My brother and I were stopped at a red light in Missoula, Mt. a couple of years ago. I had my boy, Ranger, with us in the pickup. There was a guy with long gray hair and beard standing on the street corner waiving a sign around that stated something to the effect of “give me money cuz I’m a vietnam vet”. Ranger went ballistic, snarling, snapping, foaming at the mouth. I’ve never seen him act that way before or since. My brother thinks the guy was an alien. I think Ranger just knew he was a fake.
