Owner Grieving After Dog Shot by Police.

67. And in that instance the person was prepared for the dog

and had the pepper spray out and ready when needed. You do realize that most police officers do not carry pepper spray on their person? Did you also happen to notice the size of the canister the pepper spray was in? Ever seen a police officer with that giant canister strapped to their belts? Didn't think so. They likely carry big canisters of pepper spray in the trunks of their patrol cars, but fat load of good that's going to do when a dog is charging you and you have mere seconds to react.

This idiot family put their own dog in danger by allowing it to charge at a police officer who had no bloody idea if the dog was intent on attacking them, and any strange dog charging at you is safe to assume they are bent on just that. They didn't bother to open the door and not allow the dog to escape nor did they bother to call the dog off when it went charging at the officer. By their stupid comments after the fact they've allowed this dog to just charge people and jump on them all the time which is just damn rude as hell and frightening for most people. They take zero responsibility for the situation THEY put their own dog in and would never have happened if they had even a modicum of common sense and concern for how their dog behaves to others which is THEIR responsibly as a dog owner. And here they are crying the blues for what THEY did in putting their dog in an obviously dangerous situation and point the finger at someone else. I feel sorry for the dog that it got stuck with such irresponsible stupid owners that didn't care enough about it to even attempt to keep it safe nor care about the other people in the same air space as their dog and that it was the dog that suffered the ultimate penalty.
