This has left the scope of the problem up for debate. Facts have not been readily available, allowing police to minimize the killing of pets as a rare neccessity and preventing journalists from challenging those claims. The purpose of this site is to solve that problem by collecting information on every recorded shooting of an animal by US law enforcement. This project is run by a small, but highly dedicated, group of journalists, engineers, students, lawyers and researchers. https://puppycidedb/ Dogs Shot by Cops: https://facebook/groups/357653880997442/
