Little Parrot was up for adoption - at the event to find a home - when he was accosted by a small poodle and bit the dog on the leg. Parrot’s foster Dad was in the process of controlling him when a DC K9 officer did the attached photo’s action. The police then felt it necessary to THROW him down a flight of stairs and shoot him in the head. This is outrageous, unnecessary behavior. The police are now insinuating that Parrot bit 3 people, including an officer. This dog was shot dead in a crowd of 10,000 people - with children watching.
Please help us. Events like this hurt everyone in rescue - and every pit bull trying to find a home who is continually misunderstood, mistreated, and pigeon holed. Parrot was a great dog who was taken to work every day by his foster Dad - who loved everyone he met. This a huge loss. Parrot actually had an adoptive family lined up and waiting for him before he was needlessly killed.
Speak up!! Email the DC Chief of Police at cathy.lanier@dc.gov Tell her about your disgust of her officer’s actions and demand justice for Parrot - and for every pit bull dog out there
