Small town Chief of Police brutally shoots caged dogs

Image...
Wednesday, November 11, on the okay of the mayor, the Chief of Police of Corning,AR shot all the dogs they had picked up from town. They have since released a statement to KAIT channel 8 news that the dogs had been exposed to rabies, so they had to shoot all 6 of them. The local vet has issued a statement that she never checked these dogs, or established that they had rabies. The city had an appointment to humanely put these dogs down but it was cancelled Wed. afternoon, shortly before the Chief of Police, Jim Gronings shot the dogs.Our community did not even know that we had a dog pound, or that our dogs would be picked up if they got out of the yard. One lady in town has come forward to issue a formal complaint against the city, after she and her 6 year old son saw their dog shot by the officer on the 6:00 news. The city told her Wed. that she could pay $25.00, and get her dog out of the pen on Friday, but then they killed it that afternoon without notifying her.
