The dog wouldn't of been shot because he wanted to stand up for nothing at all, as you claim. The dog could of been shot because a police officer, who had no right to be on the property, would of shot and killed a dog.

You're one of those guys who actually believes someone is resisting because the cops who are beating a man to death yell "stop resisting" while they are committing murder, huh?
Contrary to popular belief the police don't just drive around looking for ways to fuck with people because they have nothing better to do. If the dispatch told this cop that there was a hang up 911 call at this house he only has that information to go on so he is investigating it. When he walks up to the house he assumes he is doing so in good faith for his investigation.

You could argue that he could have handled the dog situation better, but we weren't there so we don't know exactly how it went down. He has no idea if the dogs are going to attack him and when he calls out for the owner to control the dogs and they don't it gives him an immediate reason to suspect something is going on.

Nobody is giving up their rights or not being a man here. I bet if there were a story about a hang up 911 call and the police didn't investigate it and some woman was raped and killed because they didn't investigate it you would be ripping the police for not doing their job.
