A cop in North Carolina is under fire for hanging a K-9 by its leash and slamming it into his squad car -- all while someone laughed and said,"We're good, no witnesses."

Zuul had jumped out of his squad car during a training exercise, which apparently pissed off the cop. He immediately screamed for Zuul to stop, and he did. But, the cop then put a leash on him and hanged Zuul by it, slamming him into the side of the SUV, throwing him into the back seat and slapping him.

This guy needs to go to jail. Cannot believe he even asked if there was a camera. He knew what he was doing was wrong he is just upset he got caught. What a pig!

He needs jailed for attacking his follow officer. Should be no difference.

Please take strict action against this monster.

but is it a black dog

Sick🖕🏻

Perfect example of temperment and imagine how he treats a human he disagrees with.

This is abuse, you can tell by the lil man's walk he has problems having authority. I'm glad he doesn't no longer have zuul however he should face abuse charges, if he abuses animal does he abuse people? 🥴😡

But if the dog would have only complied....

So I guess you have to be a dog 🐕 just so the police can actually go to jail!! What about all the unarmed ppl the police have shot? They just get desk duty for that huh? 😏🤔

Do the same to him

Defending a dog more than a man. 👀

Fire him

Haha were good he say, why do al cops think they are more worth as civillians, Day after Day all around the world stories of shitty cops ainth worth wearing badges

SOB

WeHoDaily Horrific but sad he’ll get in more trouble for this than if this was a human.

WeHoDaily An eye for an eye, a leash for a leash, a knee for a knee-whatever it takes to be free.

Who’s recording this?

Fire this man. That shit is not acceptable

Fire his freaking ass

Should be worse than firing if a civilian/public hurts a police canine it is as bad as hurting the human officer.

This should be the end of this officer's career in law enforcement. To abuse this beautiful K9 like that makes him nothing more than a criminal with a badge

Get that piece of 💩 & show him what that feels like. Smh. crazycop

This other cops recording are accomplice there making sure tha cameras are off

if these dogs were really your partner you might try making friends with them! It's the the owners or handlers who make bad dogs

lellingw tough guy. Hope he's not a cop much longer, we do not need, or want, 'tough guy's in service to the people.

All the dog had to do was simply comply. We don’t know the whole story. Probably some PC dog all on that “Dogs Lives Matter.” That dog looks like he has a criminal record.

These pigs ain’t shit

POS!!! I hope he gets fired! This needs to go viral

Another example of police brutality

WTF

all these bad apples keep adding up

Fire him.

Bastard If I saw something like that, any mistreatment, I would use physical force to help the animal. Mean fucking cop

I wish someone would do that to him! He’s an asshole and should be fired!!!!

Technically, that's assault on a fellow officer.

Wow if he’d do this to a dog imagine what he’d do to a human who he feels wasn’t following his commands. Sad

People don’t deserve pets

culd b a sexual ting!!!! datz wut dey doo in my kulture yo!!!! itz def a sexual ting u cum krazEEE yo!!!!

And people still argue how cops are 'unjustly' treated

What a sick fuck

Smhhhhh

OMG, I hope that this cop got what was coming to him!

“Cop kill a Negro he a Hero” 2Pac

Every cop does this!!!!! This needz more attention

Hasn't he been sacked yet!!!

If see ANYONE hurting an animal, I dont care who you are, it will end bad. ALL animals are innocent, people, not so much. I hope this wasn't the case.

will he suffer the same fate in prison 🤔

So you can imagine how he treats the humans

Guess it’s time for a cop to get hung and choked!! I have no problem with GOOD cops but bad ones, fuck em all. This guy needs some attention ;)

Under Fire is an understatement, this so called LEO should be FIRED by now!

Now they choking dogs. Smh

Some People in this comment don't make sence at all !!!!!!! what was he supposed to do if the dog didn't follow his command kneel and beg it😂😂😂😂

Fucker

OMG !!! That NC policeman should be charged for animal cruelty🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Please, take that innocent K9 😢😢😢away from that despicable and cruel NC cop! DON’T let him use training as an excuse for animal cruelty!!!🤬That innocent poor pup/ K9 must have PTSD now😢😢😢

Hijo de puta! They should put a collar in the ass officer neck and lift him up so he knows how it feels 😡

Dude is dead wrong for this. My dog is a German Shepherd and a jerk. He is basically trained. I would never do all that to him.. That dog did what he was supposed to do when told to. Poor thing. I hope this isn't typical. And I get all the sarcastic jokes. I laughed.

Poor dog 🐶

And, that 4 legged officer would still die for him in a heartbeat! Sad!

Sumbdy nds 2 do him lke he did tht poor defenceless dog

Oh yeah they will come out and defend the dog but find Police Brutality non existent

What the absolute fuck? What is wrong with people? Dogs/animals do not deserve to be treated like this they have innocent souls. Fired jail 💔💔💔💔 justice

That dog is his partner and would take a bullet for that piece of 💩 . If he does this to his k-9 partner, lord knows what he does or would do to a suspect. Scary.

Yes keep going away from the dog and any other dogs and fire him and charge him!!!!!! There is NO excuse! If they let him get away with it what is that saying about the department?

Under fire? I hope it's gun fire...

I hear the dog was resisting and has a prior record for assault if these dogs of color would follow orders then things like that wouldn’t happen. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

An absolutely disgusting video to see. The K9 handler should be fired. An independent law enforcement agency should be investigating the SalisburyNCPD K9 program. The other officers in that vid did NOTHING; concerned about bodycam being on. Feel sorry for their wives & kids.

Arrest him.

thats genuinely fucking sick

Maybe if he was allowed to deal with the mentally ill people this way because he probably deals with these people on a daily basis he wouldn't have to be so angry and frustrated and take it out on the dog or anyone that's closet to him

He saw the dog as black.

🤬🤬🤬🤬

So much for treating the dog as one of their own! I'm not sure why I expected animals to be treated better, but I did!

Disgusting!

Makes me fucking sick.

It's called animal cruelty

Wowww this is total abuse!!!

wouldnt that be using lethal force against an officer? they shoot innocent people for far, far less. fuck everything about and around that guy. I hope that dog tears his ass up.

Police brutality

Imagine what he’d do to minorities. 🤨

I hope someone does that cop the way he just did the dog. Piece of shit human.

Send him to jail

There shouldn’t be police dogs at all! It’s always something. Cops beating them, leaving them in hot vehicles, and this!!! He should be charged with assault against an officer!

Peace of shit

Disgusting. Truly.

Fire His ass right now.

If there are good cops, they need to figure out a way to stop this behavior within their culture.

Just imagine what he did to Black people

Piece of shit fire his ass

The bog is wearing a harness...it's not being choked

Lmao cops can hurt people why not a dog ?

Yeah okay, but we don’t know what the dog did before the video started. Probably 100% justified. Also, don’t resist.

Great now cops think it’s ok to abuse dogs WTF Throw him in jail and throw away the key!! He deserve’s far worse than that!! What the hell is wrong with people peta

This is terrible. He needs to be fired.

Paid vacation 🤦‍♂️

Using dogs is cowardly!! I saw them shoot thier own dog while trying to take someone down whom was unarmed!!

I bet $17,448.58 he gets jail time. But they kill people and got paid leave

Had he choked a human being he wouldn’t be in trouble. 🤦🏾‍♀️

asshole

Fire the cop!

🐷🐷

More just than killing a black person😩.

hope they were both fired!!!!

Officer 👮‍♀️ you are a fucking looser

Fire this asshole! Fire him with no honors!

If this is true then he should be charged This is a felony. Not to mention discusting!

These people are distrusting.

Police are brutal to cop dogs. At least in Canada where I’ve seen them train. It’s hard to watch tbh

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Was he trying to get the dog under control, like most K-9 units try and do, but the dogs don’t give a damn?

How do you plead pig?

FTP !! there all crooked

Arrest him for assaulting an officer.

I WANT THAT COP in jail but first want him smashed against the car and dragged. its videotaped... EVIDENCE

This is where they draw the line.

Unbelievable. What he did to that dog, should be done to him.

Wonder if he is also a “hunter” ?

How horr

Abuse is abuse whether it’s towards an animal or human being. But people like to choose when penalization should apply to police officers when there is clear evidence of assault. Keep that same energy.

Fuckin cock!

Under fire? Should be, got fired.

Piece of shit 🤬

If this is true, it's cruel don't kno who's worse the one who actually did the act or the one who laughed, a bunch of bottom feeding s**t head soul less demonic p***ks. I love animals & this hurts my heart.

The way I see it, is that cops are just assholes in general on a continuous power trip

Pure Evil

Motherfucker. I hope his ass gets fired. Jesus.

Too bad he’s not LITERALLY under fire.

Intentionally subjecting an animal to cruel neglect, mistreatment, or killing or harming a service animal is a Class 6 Felony punishable by a fine of up to $150,000 and/or imprisonment of up to 1.5 years.

Some people just do not get it.poor dog

Who wants to bet this douchebag cop gets no penalty because he’s white and it’s America ? Thought K-9 units were considered actual officers, so wouldn’t this be animal abuse and assault against an officer?

Police brutality isn't limited to black and brown people.

If these mfs can choke an actual human being to death, what's a dog. Disgusting and they will never change.

This person needs to lose his job and be arrested for assault on an officer! 🤬

Fire all involved!!!! Pets have no voice!!!

FIRE HIM.

Pos

peta

This man needs to be schooled by men twice his size and have his ass choked out.

Cop on cop crime

If this is how he treats animals, I hope he doesnt have children or around any...

Jesus Christ. People scare me man. Wicked. Looking online now for a magnum. Really a little better than a magnum. 458 cullum. Forget the name right now but it’s beauty.

Pig

Insert comments about people not being allowed to be mad at the cop for abusing the dog because people feel that other people aren’t as mad about the treatment of minorities by police officers.

peta

Despite the d*ck move, the dog wasn't harmed and is healthy.

'We're good. No witnesses' as he drags the dog over his shoulder, knocking him into the door of the van before he throws him in there and uses his hand to strike the poor dog. Yea, no witnesses. This cop should be fired. And the Mayor needs an independent review? Seriously?

NC Judge: welp since he wasn’t a black person we are going to put you in prison

Take that poor dog away from him IMMEDIATELY!!! That dog would give his life for that a$$hole!!!! He should be put on leave! If he'll do that to his partner think of what he's doing to people!!!!

Police dogs are officers just like them and it should be treated like an assault on a colleague. (The dog also needs another handler)

Wtf 🤬

BLUE LIVES MATT... oh, wait.

He should go to prison 5 years

This man is evil and must be punished seriously for terrifying and torturing a defenceless little dog soul 🤬

And y’all better do him like y’all did Michael Vick

Probably beats his wife too

Perhaps if the dog would’ve obeyed the commands of the officer, it wouldn’t have been choked. Lol

That will certainly get a strongly worded statement put in his file for he and his friends to giggle about

Care2 peta nomorepolicek9s

Let the dog bite him in his tiny balls.

Nothing will happen to him. Sadly...

What the heck

DLM

Of course he is. But if that were a bla—y’know what. Never mind.

Thought that was his best friend

Fire his sorry butt

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Another great move by the people we allow to carry a badge and a gun. Disgusting hope he gets jail time.

WTF

He should be fired.

He should be 6 feet under

More outrage and a more immediate response than if this happen to a human (of color)!

They should do the same to him that he did to that dog, see how he likes it. Bastard!

Need to fire his pussy ass!!! Disgusted!

Horrible....dog should be taken from him!

Any person who mistreat an defenseless animal is a fuckin coward!!!!

Fuckin coward 😤😡

😡😤😠🤯 is there anywhere we can sign to have him fired?!

Fire this POS

BarstoolBigCat BarstoolRia PFTCommenter if anyone can spread the word about this horrible incident and get this guy fired for this it is you.

Disturbing and despicable. The video and audio support my view that a significant number of cops are sociopaths, or sociopaths in training

Such a duck Poor dog looked scared as he approached he does it all the time FIRE HIM

You have finally covered something that I absolutely agree with. This guy needs to be removed from the force. That horrified me he actually hung the dog. ANOTHER MICHAEL VICK.

Stomach turning!!! Just disgusting!!!!

Blue lives Matter

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

This guy does not need to be a cop

FIRED. NEEDS TO BE. NOW!

Please tell me that he is FIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If he treats his K9 like that, how is going to treat citizens? He does not need to have a badge, and certainly not a gun!

They are just going to say it fine he was 'Correcting' the dog did another cop just sit on his dog and punch while someone recorded and nothing happened either

peta should get on this officer’s case too

The law will hold him accountable because he was choking a dog not a black man.... shame!

What a ASSHOLE. When they are training police at the academies to they use this kind of force or tactics on them He should NOT be allowed to have another canine dog with him PERIOD.

Ok as a retired k9 officer that was too extreme for a corrections. Sometimes you have to use a corrective choke to get them to release or give the reward toy back. The end when he smacked him was BS and if I was the chief he would be gone!!

no way that's 'out of context training' unless you're training the dog for cage fighting. zuul immediately stopped when he was told to. those dogs are already smart you don't need to literally beat it into him. disgusting abuse.

What a pig

Disgusting behavior!! Aggression toward animals is a reflection of how you treat humans. This is a dangerous human to be in a position of authority, especially with a gun.

This is so disturbing, poor dog.

OMG this is disgraceful! Anything with animals makes me so mad.....🤬🤬 pick on your on size

Dogs are more protected than black people.

😡😠🤯

Fire the cruel dickhead. Hope dog was ok

Ain’t shit gonna happen to him, but fuck him!

That dog rhates his officer probably happened more than once,the dog needs to be rehomed not to another pig.

Looks like the dog needs to get more of some actual training.. figure out if it’s the dog or the training that’s the problem.

I will gladly adopt that dog please let me.

Wasn’t there a federal billed passed about animal cruelty?

He needs yo be put down,the cop not the dog

Damn I wish I could unsee this! 😠

“We are good no witnesses” What a no good piece of shit!!!! This is the best they have to police people? Poor dog.

They choke black people all the time. I’m sure he’ll get a slap on the wrist for this... he better

😠

The dog gets harmed the world has a fit! Black man get harmed America is like “he has to do something to provoke it”

Weird cause If I choked his dog, its assault on an officer...

He should be fired on the spot anf never allowed to own a dog..

Imagine how he treats his kids.

Oh hell no!!! Give me 5 minutes alone with this douche!! I hope this goes viral and he gets what should be coming to him!! 🤬😡🤬🤬

put this North Carolina 'cop' behind a desk and leave him there. or better yet fire him.

Animal Lives Actually Matter.

Criminals in uniform

Hope Zuul is ok. Poor thing.

Y’all need to find out the name of that cop.

Turn in your badge.

Fire the cop

Who tf “trains” a big ass dog by hanging them? Why is this even a question... if he can’t even handle animals from the department, how can he deal with citizens & criminals?

I looked it up. This dog has bitten 5 people in its past. Deserves it!

USA needs to take a lesson from others

“The dog didn’t listen to his commands” blue lives matter 😂

dogs like this are trained to go into war soldiers and police officers in the line of duty .to treat them with this cruelty is barbaric.hope this lowlife gets fired and charged 😡

If he’d do this to a dog, imagine what he’d do to a person

I hope they jail the💩and fire him.

When these cops start getting ran up on and beat for the shit they do, they’ll start acting right. Shaming them does nothing. Charging them does nothing. Recording, reporting, does nothing.

Kill that ducking douche

Why can’t the dog just listen to orders?

Hmmmmm.....how about remove this K9 from the police department ENTIRELY?!?!?!? ASPCA needs to get involved.

Omg this poor dog probably thought his friend was in trouble this evil bast&$! Fire him!!!

The dog should've complied...

He should be fired TODAY. That poor dog. Such an abuse, my blood Boils of anger

But if it was a black person.....

'Is your camera on? I think mines on' 🤣🤣🤣

This is wrong! He needs to be fired and charged!

DLM

Nothing changes about them... they choke humans too...!!!!!

They just to beat and kill anything around them, true story

Violence isn’t always the answer but can we choke, leash, and slap the dogsh*t out of the cop

Oh hell no...someone should do the same to him!!

Fuck no he’s going to hell for that

Inexcusable but they'll try.

The dog shouldn’t have been resisting 😒

Fire 🔥 his 👇

If victim is a dog or white no one will care

Prosecute that Cop, Cruelty to animals is a crime and get that dog real help..unbelievable🐾

That's assault on a law enforcement officer for any civilian... this officer should be charged... and the onlookers dealth with accordingly !!!

He needs to be arrested
