I would have been much more the outraged!! FIRST of all, since when do police go around chasing dogs that got out of their homes? Secondly, this cop is obviously gun happy!

Following rules, my butt. Rabies in domestic animals is very rare, especially in the United States. From the article, he was showing no symptoms of Rabies. People with a functioning brain know not to corner a scared dog! The thing that bothers me the most about this is the police department isn't investigating further. The guy is just gonna wash his hands of this and that will be the end of it. Again, no justice for an innocently slain animal. The cop should at least get a suspenstion really, but of course he won't. What a moron

The dog was not only terrified, but he was defending his territory.
