"Surrender" is probably being polite. I can only imagine the reaction of the agency when they saw how that poor dog was treated.
Now, let's see what else Ms. Cooper is forced to surrender (her job, her freedom, lots of settlement/fine money ...)

I have a big German Shepard puppy. Theres a park where dogs are frequently let off the leash, even though technically its not a dog park and people arent suppose to. Ill do it if its empty.
She doesnt like the come here command although shes getting better. Sometimes, I put her on a thirty foot leash and keep her Closely monitored in the big playfield because I dont want her approaching anything, person or animal, without permission. (I also dont want her getting tangled in that long leash)
Shes huge and only ten months old. People are gonna be afraid of her. I dont want unleashed dogs approaching me either. I dont know them. Its courtesy.

(9,234 posts)Was he choked often by his 'rescuer' (torturer) mom Amy? The way she was holding him by his collar (half his body weight hanging), even when she knew she was being recorded, shows she was very comfortable doing that to the dog.

(34,047 posts)yes, take the dog from her so she doesn't endanger henry any more. but also fine the shit out of her her. here's a few takes from your link:
Eliza Orlins, a public defender, Manhattan District Attorney candidate and former Survivor and Amazing Race contestant tweeted, This is serious. Happened today in Manhattan. As a public defender for over a decade, I have tried cases where the Manhattan DA uses a hysterical 911 call as categorical evidence of guilt. Usually theres no video like this to refute it.
Elizabeth McLaughlin, of the Gaia Project for Womens Leadership, tweeted, White moms, if you are not actively talking to your kids about how to be antiracist, you need to get going. We have always been part of the problem. We have a chance to break that legacy. Im horrified by Amy Cooper and all of her ilk. And lets not forget: hate is taught.
Attorney Rebecca Kavanaugh said on Twitter, This woman (who has been identified as some sort of finance exec, Amy Cooper) needs to be charged with (at a minimum) Falsely Reporting an Incident to the Police, Harassment, and Making a Terroristic Threat.
