    How Often Are Dogs Shot by the Police?

    A Los Angeles woman's dog was shot and killed by police who mistook her celebration of the New York Knicks' NBA championship for a 'screaming woman.' The incident, captured on body camera, highlights a lack of national data on police-involved canine shootings, with estimates suggesting 10,000 dogs are killed annually by officers due to inadequate training and mindset issues. Similar cases, like a therapy dog shot in Illinois, underscore the issue's prevalence.
