Papa Bears Law : Protect Dogs In Your Home
Stop the killing of loving companions and pass a law that holds dog owners and officers of the law responsible for the safety of dogs and people within private property.
Why is this important?
There have been to many incidents where dogs have been severely injured or killed while performing the duties of protecting their home. In some cases, non-reactive dogs have been killed as well. A dog by the name Kilo Stray "Papa Bear" was recently tased and euthanized because officers entered a home and would not let the responsible adult put him away. This petition calls upon the Senate to pass a law that states if there are posted signs at all entries saying that there are dogs inside, officers are required to bring a person from the animal control department to safely restrain any dogs, so the officers may focus on executing their duties without hurting any human companions in the process.
