Yet again, dogs have been shot and killed for doing something that comes naturally to them and something you expect them to do- protecting their territory. Late yesterday afternoon, Sacramento police were conducting a random probation home search and entered into the backyard. There, officers say they were "attacked" by four pit bulls that they did not know were on the property. One of the officers shot three of the dogs, killing two, and the surviving dogs were taken into custody by Animal Control. Currently, there is no evidence of any dog bites or that an actual physical attack occurred. The dogs were believed to have been simply protecting their home, as any dog would instinctively do (regardless of breed!).
Let us know how you feel!! Do you believe the shooting officer should be reprimanded for making such a move??
Does this upset you as much as it does GentleLamb? Express your feelings to Sacramento's Representatives here.
