This act was not called for. There is proper protocol to deal with an animal. Hunter's have to be sure of their kill before it is made or they lose all hunting rights and have use of guns banned. This officer did not follow protocol and he needs to be punished severely for this. No one is above the law now it is your job to prove it.

This Cop Needs To Go .
He Shows ZERO Compassion For Animals And Suffers From Some Form Of Mental Illness . I Really Question How He Treats People He Arrests ?
Instead Of Investigating To See If This Was Really A Coyote , He Just Mow's It Down With His Cruiser 3 Times Then Shoots It .
Does He Hate Dogs That Much Because His Mother Would Not Let Him Have A Puppy When He Was A Kid ?
I Would Not Want Him In My City Patrolling The Streets Because He May Run Over And Shoot A Person , Either An Adult Or Child , Dressed Up For Halloween Claiming He Thought They Were A Real Live Zombie .
Scary To Think We Have People Like This Running Around Carrying A Gun And A Badge . If Anyone Else Had Done This , They Would Be Up On Charges And Facing Jail Time But Because He Is A Cop , He Gets A Free Pass ?

How dare you not be more careful before you KILL a living breathing creature; even if this was a coyote, it could be tranquilized by animal control and moved to an area for them; NOTHING needed to be killed here, let alone someone's pet!! Thank god for you that was not my dog you killed!

I think this officer should be charged with animal cruelty and be fired for his behaviour. When receiving a call, there should have been a formal investigation into the matter before action was taken. This police officer erred in judgement and not only did he make a blind and deaf dog suffer, he also endangered the safety of any animal that gets loose in the area. Without due punishment this kind of behaviour can continue and does not stop him from killing any animal or pet that gets loose. If he had investigated further into this he would be able to establish that the dog did not pose any threat, the dog couldn't even run away because he didn't know what was coming. The dog had no voice, without punishing this officer we allow this dog to go unheard, and are accepting that what this police officer did was acceptable.

OMG..WHO TRAINS THESE COPS??? DO THEY LIVE BY A DIFFERENCE CODE OF COMPASSION & DIGNITY?THEY SEEM TO USE A GUN TO TAKE CARE OF ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS & IN THIS CASE ALSO A CAR THAT RAN OVER THIS POOR ANIMAL NOT ONE, NOT TWO, BUT THREE HORRIFIC TIMES. I WONDER WHAT HORROR THAT THIS POOR BLIND/DEAF DOG EXPERIENCED BEFORE THIS COP GOT OUT OF HIS CAR AND SHOT IT. I'M STILL SICK,APPALLED, DISGUSTED & REPULSED AFTER SEEING AND HEARING THIS VIDEO. I WOULDN'T WANT ANY ANIMAL TO BE TREATED SO HORRIBLY BUT TO THINK THAT IT WAS SOMEONES BELOVED BLIND/DEAF PET MAKES IT EVER SO MUCH WORSE.

SOMETHING MUST BE DONE ABOUT THIS AND THAT DOESN'T MEAN A SORRY APOLOGY. THIS DOG DIED A HORRIBLE AND PAINFUL DEATH AND SOMEONE MUST TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND ALSO THE PUNISHMENT!! I KNOW IT WON'T BRING MERLIN BACK BUT I HOPE THE OWNER GETS AN ATTORNEY AND THEY MAKE SURE THIS KIND OF HORROR DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. THESE COPS MUST BE THOROUGHLY TRAINED TO USE THEIR BRAIN FIRST AND THEN THEIR CAR AND THEN THEIR GUNS. AND YOU WONDER WHY COPS ARE THOUGHT OF SO POORLY TODAY. IT'S A SHAME BECAUSE THEY RISK THEIR LIVES EVERY DAY BUT THIS ONE STORY MAKES A BAD TASTE IN ONE'S MOUTH THAT MAY NEVER SUBSIDE.. TOO BAD.

Logic would indicate the duty of this officer was to isolate the coyote/dog from people until someone with expertise in the area such as animal control arrived. Instead he used the occasion as an opportunity to exercise his bloodlust by running an aged, blind and deaf lost dog over until dead with a two-ton taxpayer funded vehicle. Incompetent and shameful!

This officer needs to be dismissed- not just suspended- and then treated by a good psychiatrist.. Individuals who abuse animals are five times more likely to commit violent crimes against people. Deviant behaviors such as animal abuse generally originate from a traumatic childhood. The American Psychiatric Association considers animal cruelty as one of the diagnostic criteria of conduct disorder. The fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) defines conduct disorder as "a repetitive and persistent pattern of behavior in which the basic rights of others or major societal norms or rules are violated." ACTIVE CRUELTY is one of the more severe types of animal abuse, where cruelty is inflicted with deliberate intent to harm an animal creating immediate pain and suffering.
Allowing this police officer to remain in his role is not only disrespectful of the rights of the owner and the animal, but is also dangerously exposing the public to someone in a law enforcement role who may very well have conduct disorder . Very scary.

I am disgusted by the actions of this officer. Not only does he need to be fired but also charged with animal cruelty. Even if this dog had been a coyote this officer's actions were not appropriate. Anyone causing intentional suffering like this to a truly helpless animal (deaf & blind for goodness sake!) needs to be punished. Make an example of this officer & show the public that animal cruelty by anyone will not be tolerated.
