My dog was shot in the face today by an officer from the Hammond Indiana police department. Lilly was on the side of our house with my two boys ages 7, and 11 years old, my daughter 16 yrs old and my baby boy 11 months were standing 15 feet behind her. We have a sign and flags in our front yard warning everyone that Lilly is on the premises and is confined by an electric fence, there are also flags marking up to what point she can reach (middle of our front yard). The police officer decided to jump out of his vehicle, take out his gun and shoot my dog in the face in front of all my kids and neighbors. He never said a word before he shot her! Our family needs justice, hammond police like to beat up there K9 police dogs and now it seems they like to shoot the residents pets in front of children! What would of happened if he would of missed and hit my kids instead? Something has to be done… Someone please help us get this out, he completely didn't care for my kids safety or well being.
Some people are stupid :
how can you let a Petbull run around with a open gate when you see a petbull open gate you are not going to see a electrical fence sign.
You are going to see a dog with a reputation as dangerous running at you I see why the officer did what he did .But as what I think he did
stupid was shot the gun with kid's around …. he could used the pepper spray and Taser gun as they said ….
and for sure the police had no fault paying thousands dollars insurance claims…
There should be a gated fence at all time when people feel danger they will not see sings ………..
