In Salisbury, North Carolina an officer was caught on camera abusing his canine, Zuul. He hung and swung the dog from the leash and carried him hanging by the leash to the police car, then forcefully slammed the dog into the car and looks like there was even a punch thrown at the dog!

THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE!!!!

In the video you hear another officer saying “we’re good, no witnesses”. You also hear another cop asking about cameras being on and to turn them off… Which acknowledges that they were doing something wrong and didn’t want to be seen!!!

This is absolutely sickening to me to see an animal abused by the people who are supposed to protect and serve us. If they are doing this to their own canines, imagine what they could be doing to people!

There is no reason for this! Animal abuse is now a felony, and If a criminal did this to a police k-9, he would be charged with assault on an officer!

Just because you’re a police officer doesn’t mean that you should get a slap on the wrist for something like this. He should be charged with animal cruelty and assault on an officer along with being fired from his job!

How can you trust someone that can do this to an animal that is supposed to protect and serve you? You can’t!

Do the right thing and help sign this petition and let’s stop this animal cruelty and show that police that decide to do this that they won’t get no special treatment and be booked and charged like any other person!
