Owner Grieving After Dog Shot by Police.

21. that doesn't always work

Dog attacks are likely the number one complaint of mail carriers. And they should be able to do their jobs without having peoples' dogs loose and charging at them. Neither should anyone else including the police.

The far more humane thing to do is either train your dog not to run at and jump on people and/or don't open the door in such a way as the dog can escape and run and jump on anyone. The people caused the death of their own dog by being so fucking stupid as to allow their dog to run and jump on people including a police officer who had no idea if the dog was going to attack them or not and had no logical nor legal reason to do nothing and just present themselves for attack by way of finding out. They were also so stupid as to allow their dog to charge a police officer and didn't bother to call the dog back nor open the door in such a way as to not allow the dog to escape and charge the officer.
