Dear friends,   During a recent traffic stop in Fayetteville, North Caroline, an officer instructed his police dog to sniff a stopped car. But things quickly took a turn for the violent — and a bystander caught it on video. The officer can be seen holding the dog tightly by the collar, its front legs dangling off the ground. Then the officer can be seen punching the trapped dog once, twice, three times, hard, directly in the face. He then swings the dog around, tightly grabbing its muzzle, and lifts all of the dog's legs off the ground, hanging the poor thing.  The Fayetteville Police Department claims the dog bit the officer and is using that to justify the man's violence. But there is no justification for animal abuse. This officer should have been well aware of his dog's behaviors and ready to respond with control and calm that kept everyone safe.  We have little information about what has happened to this poor pup and his abusive "partner," but from what we can tell based on the Fayetteville PD's statements defending his behavior, they may have not disciplined him at all.   This police department should be protecting the animals in its possession, and disciplining openly violent officers. Sign the petition to ask that the Fayetteville Police Department fire this officer, and retire this abused dog to a life of safety!

Thank you, Lauren Care2 Petitions Team
