Not stationary anyway.

Criminals know, if they run through a yard first, they will probably get through the yard unmolested.

But the cop following up will be the one attacked by the angry dog.

[Sudetenland]

If the criminal has "run through the yard," then he ain't there and there is no reason to kill the dog to investigate . . . especially when the owner is on her way home.

You apologists are pathetic in attempting to rationalize and excuse the inexcusable thuggish behavior of little boys who are supposed to be trained as men.
