Comment: The article question the validity of hiring private security company, with questionable qualifications of their armed employees, instead of the Sheriff office. Posting character assassinations toward those whom seem to have the public safety in mind is uncalled for. Whether the owner of the dog used poor judgment or their situations was beyond their control, the pet dog is dead. No condemnations  or accusations of the  owner's conduct will resurrect this pet dog. Sincere condolences to them. The lost of a loved pet equates the loss of a human being!
