I'm going ahead and putting this in off-topic:
Cop kills dog while responding to call | KXAN.com
Nevermind how furious I am. I just want to know what safety measures I can take so my dog doesn't die to a cop shooting him. I only feel lucky Yorkies are so small. That reduces the likelihood of your dog dying by cop...some. I feel for bigger dog owners who must have it far worse. I don't feel any less need to rally behind owners of bigger dogs just because I myself have a small dog.
