Message: <blockquote data-quote="HonkyTonkHale" data-source="post: 2684599" data-attributes="member: 34055"><p>As a general rule, I give the benefit of the doubt to the police.  In a domestic disturbance call, the officer has a duty and requirement to ensure that neither party is in peril.  A warrant is not required to verify the safety of individuals in a domestic disturbance call.  I can certainly sympathize with anyone wanting to protect his dogs, but the best way to protect them at that moment would be to coral them so the officer could safely do his job.  It is concerning that the officer was at the back of the house instead of the front, but I do not know the reasoning for the situation.  It is a sad story no matter who is at fault.</p></blockquote><p></p>
