Barking Mad
In keeping with our police dog theme of the day, here’s a story with a twist. A man got himself arrested for barking at a police dog in Three Rivers, Michigan.
Here are the details from WLKM.
The Three Rivers Police Department said officers responded Monday evening to an apartment complex to investigate a suspicious situation.
Police said Wednesday in a statement a 26-year-old man in the area “began to torment” a police dog inside the patrol car by barking and shouting at it, causing the animal to become excited and “very aggressive.”
The man was arrested and later released on bond. He faces a charge of disorderly conduct.
I’m thinking perhaps some drugs or alcohol may have been involved in this incident. Just a guess.

The man should be fined and maybe even a few days in jail. The dog was probably on duty. I’d like to see the dog take a bite out of the man’s leg.
Too bad the dog didn’t get out & take care of the problem…
Sometimes people can be such dillweeds…. that dog could HURT you.
Dillweed!
I agree. To bad the dog didn’t give that dummy what for.
I am glad to hear that the person that was messing with a working dog got arrested. It is against the law! The darn fool is lucky that the police dog didn’t attack him for goodness sakes! It is upsetting that so many people do not get that messing with any dog that is working, police or even service dogs is against the law! As a person that has a service dog we go through it all the time. I can’t believe that this person did it to a police dog though, what the heck!
I’m sure there was drugs or alcohol involved. I can’t imagine someone standing and barking at a dog in any car let alone a police car. Seems kind of silly to me, he must have looked so ridiculous.
Sometimes I just don’t get people. What good could possibly come from antagonizing a police dog?
