Hmmm, strange for a dog park/run but not so strange if Mr. Officer kept his precious pooch on the leash because his German Shepherd behaves like a... German Shepherd (i.e. inclined to aggressively go after other dogs).
How many posts do I have to see like this?
And frankly, I fail to see what’s so terrible about having the lead on.
You are assuming alot of things. Never mind the “vicious German Shepherd”, but apparently unaware of how spitz-type dogs can be (hyper, and prone to pinning people - I’ve been through that myself), and ignoring the apparent fact that the Siberian “aggressively” (likely meaning simply “assertively” and overzealously) went after a leaded dog, however friendly. Hyper can be very difficult to manage.
Generally, however, the cop apparently overreacted in killing this dog. There may have been no aggression at all in their play - just an aggressive cop.
But I can’t let these comments stand in and of themselves.
