• Danville police shoot, kill growling miniature dachshund | Richmond Times-Dispatch
  DANVILLE—Danville’s police chief says one of his officers acted properly by shooting and killing an 11-year-old miniature dachshund that ran at him while growling. Neighbors said Killer, who died Monday night after being shot once, was a sweet, mild-mannered dog. “He just kind of walked up and down the neighborhood and didn’t bother anybody,“ said Jenine Edmunds, who lives on the same cul-de-sac as Killer’s owners, Tawaiin Harper and his family. “He was just a little house dog.“

Note to self: If you walk the dogs at night be prepared for them to get spooked by something invisible to you. Then be prepared for them to jump about 11 feet sideways and backwards and entangling you in their leashes in the process. Then be thankful you have a strong heart. Finally be hopeful that your vituperative yelps didn’t wake up the neighbors and don’t walk the dogs after dark ever again. Ever. Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry
