A Michigan couple is furious after police shot and killed their 10-month-old lab-pit bull puppy in their own backyard.

Bianca Alakson and Ryan Showalter said their dog, Rock, was in their backyard Sunday morning when police began chasing a suspect through their Redford Township neighborhood, WDIV-TV reported.

Police said they saw their suspect in the couple's home. When officers went through the gate into the backyard to find the suspect, Rock charged, one officer said.

The officer fired one round, but when that didn't stop the dog, he fired a second, fatal shot.

Police arrested Showalter for interfering with the investigation when he confronted them about the situation. Showalter said he was just asking what happened to his dog.

Sounds like poor ol' Rock was just standing his ground, his only crime being born a dog.

So they never said what happened to the perp. I guess he hauled arse while the cops were busy shoo… , er, defending themselves from the dog.

The dog was secure in the owners yard.

The cops decided to enter the yard.

I am not a big animal lover, but this is more about property rights. The cop destroyed their dog because he decided he wanted to be where the dog was.

Too bad the cop did not trip and fall and land on .....

LOL, no you don't. Everyone knows I am the only person on the OT who does not both love and own at least two pit bulls.

These look like the kind of people that would let the dog join them in the bedroom.
