This Week in Puppycide #28

Here’s a roundup of recent headlines involving police shootings of pets and other animals.

• Unjustified | Wyoming, DE (01/29/18): Police responding to a domestic dispute shoot four rounds at the owner’s pit bull puppy that “[comes] at the trooper in an aggressive and threatening manner”; the dog runs off and bleeds out hours later. Police weren’t at all concerned about its condition or location. No nonlethal means used, no reports of injuries to the trooper.
