Justice for Dodger Portal
On May 6th, 2026, Dodger was killed on his own property by an off-duty police officer. This citizen initiative seeks to structurally realign law enforcement with their fundamental mandate to protect our communities—including our companion animals. An estimated 10,000 family dogs are killed by law enforcement nationwide each year, while zero officers have ever been lost to a pet canine. Yet, under current law, harming a police K9 is a Class C felony, while the destruction of a citizen's pet is treated as mere property damage. This disparity is unacceptable. Dodger’s Law establishes absolute criminal and civil parity. While this draft is an open invitation for legal optimization by policy experts, the foundational truth remains unshakeable: deploying a taser on a canine is a per se act of animal cruelty that systematically escalates behavioral aggression and ignores established science.
