Police are one of the top reasons for dog deaths in America. There’s basically no recourse if police shoot your dog, because they can just claim it was aggressive and/or they were worried it would attack them. Dogs don’t have any legal rights as far as the law is concerned, so there’s basically nothing the general public can do if the police kill your dog.
If you ever need to call the police to your house, the first thing you should do while you wait for them to arrive is to put as many locks between the police and your dog(s) as possible. Put their kennels in a locked room, if possible. Because if the police come into direct contact with them, there’s a very good chance that the dog won’t survive. Even if your dog is 100% friendly.
