Re: APD Shot and killed buddy's dog

No one is trying to change any laws. The goal is to better APD's and other agencies policies in dealing with other people's animals.

Charles L. Cotton wrote:NYJ, I noticed on your Cisco Facebook page a statement that concerns me a great deal. Specifically, it states "Currently, we are looking into specific policies and laws that are, or are not, in place for situations such as this, and for those that ARE, are they actively being followed."

It appears to me that people involved in this issue are not only looking to Austin PD for some resolution, but are also considering trying to change Texas law as it deals with killing of animals. Is that something you or anyone with this Facebook page planning on doing in the 2013 Texas Legislative session?

Chas.
Chas,

If you are at all interested in giving whatever advice you are able to, I would truly be glad to hear it. We've kind of made our official way into a "animal rights activist group," without even knowing it. We are certainly wanting to work with APD, but the sad truth is, this happens more often then it should all around the states, and very predominantly in Texas.

Re: APD Shot and killed buddy's dog

anygun,

Sorry you feel that way, but I for one, would gladly cherish the life of my loyal companion that has been by my side for 10 years now, then one life out of half of these moronic people I have to deal with on a daily basis in my job.

A bond with a dog is a special thing, and no matter what, your best canine friend will never be as ignorant, rude, and careless as half of our population.

Officer has been taken off of patrol duty. Probably for his own safety.

Re: APD Shot and killed buddy's dog

We've gotten a lot of messages from other people who have had their dogs killed by police. One from just 20 minutes ago was a lady in OK. She said while she was away from home, her burglar alarm was tripped (false alarm), and police responded through her backyard, killing her Labrador Retriever. It just happens a lot more than we know, and I'm glad to be getting the word out.

You can't change the decision you made, just try to make things as right as you can. Just like if you busted down the wrong door the best thing to do is to replace a door.
amen. Instead, APD are being extremely crude. "We offered an apology." We??? You upper command sitting in your office all day making a butt load of that lovely liberal Austin money do not have any place to make an apology -- only the officer that pulled the trigger can make a sincere apology.

That is an outstanding observation. Perhaps all the others were at the correct address.

Who has NEVER gone onto someone else's property who had dogs and not have them run up to you? Give me a break. I've been slobbered halfway to death from much bigger, intimidating dogs than a little healer.

Chas.
"us" are the friends of Michael, and myself and one of Michael's closest friends, whom are running the facebook page. I consider this a campaign now, and "us" can be everyone standing behind supporting some sort of action to be done. Does it matter?
