Had it been your dog he would have arrested you for not having it chained up in its own backyard.
Do you have a link to support this allegation, or is it just suppositious?
This dog was chained up.
www.abovetopsecret.com...
and the lady grabbed at the cop while he had his sidearm unholstered. Is that an intelligent way to deal with any officer?
That still doesn't in any way support your comment on being arrested for not having a dog chained up in a fenced back yard.

The analysis was pioneering in its methods. Prior to the study, dog attacks analyses had almost exclusively involved the study of dog bite statistics but such a method is flawed. Dog bite statistics are skewed heavily in favour of maintaining the non-aggressive reputation of smaller breeds. This is because dog bites are only likely to be reported in the event of the bite victim requiring medical attention. Big dogs naturally produce bigger bites which result in greater need for a visit to hospital. Thus, larger breeds accrue unfair reputations.
The 2008 dog attacks study broke away from this, instead choosing its source as a survey of 6,000 dog owners. The dachshund topped the list of 33 breeds for aggression, whilst the rottweiler, pit bull and Rhodesian ridgeback scored average or below average marks for hostility towards strangers.

Considering there's no way of knowing shot records of a strange animal, a bit from any dog can become a serious issue. WHen a dog is displaying aggression, that means it intends to bite a person.
The most aggressive breed, the study found, was the Dachshund. The researchers discovered that that one in five have bit or attempted to bite a stranger, and one in twelve have lashed out at their owners. Chihuahuas were in second place, and Jack Russells were the third most aggressive breed. Up to 30 percent of these smaller breeds have bit or attempted to bite unfamiliar dogs.

My daughter had an ER trip thanks to a Daschund bite to her leg last summer. It isn't "Oh my God, my calf muscle has been ripped from my leg!" It is, however, we're going to have to collect all shot records plus a series of antibiotics and hopefully this doesn't get infected.
If I thought a dog was going to bite me and I was standing on justifiable ground, yeah... I'd shoot a dog before I'd take a bite.

You do realise that no matter your argument or facts presented the anti cop brigade will just choose to ignore them . The very same people who if they were being attacked by a dog would gladly have the police shoot it . Lets sit back and see the lies in response to that last statement .
