Shouldn't Happen To A Dog

I just finished reading another warm holiday story, this one about the cops shooting a dog in the owner's yard while the cops were searching for fugitives in the vicinity.

I can only draw from the large number of such incidents that this is somewhere in the police general policies and procedures: 'Dogs need to be shot. If you're out on a call, and there's a dog nearby, shoot it. This particularly pertains to raids or even visits to the wrong address.'

We can be grateful that they only use the taser on the mentally challanged, old women, and children. So far.

Reading A Dog's Mind

Saw this: Study Aims To Read Dogs' Thoughts and thought, "It's been done and the results published."

What Dogs Are Really Saying

Always wondered what dogs were really saying when they are insanely yapping at you?



Yep. I thought so.
