re: Michigan court rules okay for police to kill your dog

I can't believe how many people in this thread are okay with a cop slaughtering someone's best friend if it's anything other than a statue.
Yes, a cop's job is damn hard. But giving them carte blanche to murder any dog they wish is not a responsible solution to that problem

The court there is being consistent with a strict liability tort standard for the dog owners in this case. Any owner of a wild animal or domesticated animal with vicious propensity will generally be held to the same standard. I have not read the actual opinion yet but I'm willing to wager that is what you will find in the ruling.
ETA:
The court did and agreed with the policy of the agency involved by citing their policy:
Dangerous Animal, defined: An animal that bites or attacks a person or another animal.
Vicious Dog, defined: An animal of the Canis familaris species which, when either unmuzzled or unleashed, or when not confined to the premises of the owner, menaces a person in a manner which an ordinary and reasonable person would conclude to be an apparent attitude of attack.
