Just my opinion and nothing more BUT if that dog was going to bite someone it would have as as soon as it got out of the vehicle.........
I'm on the same page...
It'd probably help as well if officers had to go through a course to better learn body language of canines in general, since they encounter so many while doing their jobs. This could potentially lower the number of dogs shot to death. There are almost constantly stories on officers shooting dogs that were simply approaching to greet them, but they misunderstood that action as being charged. I've taken classes due to my prior field of work in order to better read dog's body language and behavior. I'd be willing to bet that that Rottie was actually FEARFUL and confused at that moment.

Totally agree with you
