Police Enter Backyards of Citizens Without Permission or Notice in Exercise and Shoot Man’s Dog When It Attacks

In Chilliwack, B.C., the Mounties are facing heavy criticism after they decided to use the backyards of citizens for an exercise without either notice or permission. Fendi, a six-year-old pit bull, was not happy when armed men and tracking dogs appeared around his yard. When he attacked one of the police dogs, the Mounties shot him — leaving his owner Brian Hackner with a great deal of questions and one dead dog.
Police say that Fendi actually entered the yard of a neighbor, but citizens are still irate that the police would hold such an exercise without warning them to keep their pets indoors.
We have seen a series of dog shooting in the United States associated with search warrants recently, here and here and here.
