The officers were called about a report of a loose dog that had been barking and crying all night.  They did not handle the situation carefully, and went into it knowing they weren't going to do all they could to just get Lexie back inside.

"I don't do snares, I don't do dogs ... I'll shoot the f-king thing," one of the officers said on the dashcam.

After Lexie was shot three times, she hid in the bushes to get away from her attackers.  One of the officers said, "Just die, dog," and one of them walked over to the bushes and shot her several more times.  Later they discussed how to finally kill her.  One of them asked the animal control officer if he would, "choke it out," and another suggested using a shovel.

AC officer Massey said that it wasn't a good idea because, "you know this s-t is going to be all over Facebook in an hour," and an officer responded, "yeah, unfortunately."  Still alive, Lexie was snared and forced to walk and get into the van, where she slowly and painfully bled to death sometime between one and two hours later. The above is evidence from a lawsuit filed on behalf of Lexie's owner.

Georgia: Police were investigating a nearby house alarm call, when Tim Theall let his 9 year old German Shepherd, Doc out the back door. Doc surprised an officer in the front yard and he said Holy (blank) and shot him. The house was not being burglarized, it was a false alarm. Here is where it gets weird. The officer would not let Tim tend to or take his wound dog to the vets. The not very intelligent officer informed Tim that he would be arrested if he tried to help his dog. The officer told Tim's wife that animal control was on the way to help Doc. Animal control shows up and asks where is the dead dog? Finally a slightly more intelligent Officer shows up and say Due process is just to take a few photo of the scene. Hours later Doc was taken to the Vets where he survived. He had extensive damage to his throat.  Tim understands the shooting but is angry about not being allowed to help his dog. The officer even blocked his car in. Tim is raising money to help with Doctor's Veterinarian bills.

Maybe Cops are more cat people?
