Pennsylvania Dog Owners Hold Protest at Police Station After Officer Kills Another Canine

“During the rally, protesters were on hand with sings and their canines to voice their concerns about how dogs are being treated by police, not only in Lancaster, but around the country,” Vanessa Horne said in an email interview. “We want police departments to improve how they handle animal situations by providing appropriate training to their officers.”
