I saw the video several times on the Today show. The dog jumped out of the car like anybody's family dog would jump out of a vehicle - to get out and see what was going on and what his family was doing since he was the only one left in the car. His tail was wagging happily. I was heart sick to think that this animal was killed in this manner. Either this officer knew nothing about dogs or he was a hot shot, shooting just because he could. This was a most upsetting incident. I am saddened for the family.
