If they had tasered the dog, we would have had a REAL Metafilter thread...

One of my cats is named Winston and I have no doubt the crazy little fucker would try something similar.

Gotta be the name. It channels cigar butts and tommy guns.

He was just hanging out with the wrong crowd! Those other dogs talked him into it.

Truly an awesome animal.

Awwww! The doggy thinks he's Overbuilt!

All the other dogs are saying "You caught one? You're not supposed to catch them!"

I'm surprised the cops didn't go for the black dog.

Good restraint on the cops' part. That must have been very alarming.

The Karma was eaten by the Dogma.

That said - the other day, a dog in my home town (pit bull, no less) did a similar thing to an elderly woman's arms - a major WTF...

Is this why they're not making Crown Victorias anymore?

Now that's a dog that's destined for a rather less pleasant encounter with a vehicle, if it isn't trained/restrained properly...

From a non e mouse's link:

A NEIGHBOUR who beat off a male pit bull cross that was savaging a 67-year-old Portland woman saved her life, a paramedic said yesterday.

Ahem...

Wow markkraft, I was not ready for that.

That dog wasn't acting aggressively, it's body language says that it was having a fun old time treating the car as a giant tug of war opponent. It's a Very Bad Dog but it's not being aggressive. It probably thought there were no people around to see what he was doing.

The other dog knows they're in trouble though. Look at him when the cop hits the siren- dude, someone's watching, we gotta get out of here!

On the downside: Bad dog! No!

On the upside: Good cop! Yes, who's a good cop? Have a donut!

It's awesome when your hometown makes MetaFilter. Apparently, the cops did try tasers and pepper spray on the dog, and I'm really surprised they didn't shoot it or have it immediately put down. Yesterday, a judge ordered Winston to obedience training.

I hope this doesn't trigger an epidemic of teen-aged flash mobs rubbing meat on police car bumpers.

Let me know when a car eats dog. Now that's news.

I just want to hear the conversation that took place between the two squad cars;

"Hey, Unit 1, remember when we left this morning, and your car had a front bumper?.."

Not only dogs, donkeys also eat cars too.
