  • "Platz, "A Dobe and Shepard mix are not in the toy group. " ***Yes, you are correct. They were however, being legally walkled and minding thier own business. Which does go back to the topic. "Platz that is up to you if you decide to shoot a pit because it just happens to come around. If that same pit is owned by the local police department it is considered a deputy. If you shoot and kill the dog it has the same sentencing as shooting and killing a police officer. You will be locked away for life." True and the odds of a Police dept. allowing a K-9 officer run at large are about the same as being hit by a comet :lol: Then add on the Police & City's liability.....Not only would I not be tried for defending myself against a trained attack dog, ilegally on my property.....the Civil suit settelement would be like hitting the Lotto. My thoughts on this should not bother responcible dog owners that contrrol thier dogs.
