It could only have been better if the dog was named "Evander Holyfield". posted by mr_crash_davis at 3:59 PM on November 13, 2004

Soty - a German Shepherd dog, like this one - nearly lost his left ear

i'm not saying the officer would have shot the suspect, but at least the suspect would likely have been a bit more cooperative knowing he had a long-range weapon pointed at his shoulder... posted by y0bhgu0d at 4:15 PM on November 13, 2004

"oh, this guy is going to try and fight me so instead of back up a bit and aim a firearm at him, i think i'll release a dog so it can get injured and tear the guy up a bit too"
alrighty. thanks for pointing that out letitrain. posted by y0bhgu0d at 4:20 PM on November 13, 2004
