What's to be confused about, mundane?
The officers felt their safety was at risk and shot and killed your fucking dogs.

Charleston, West Virgina -
On October 19th, officers with the Charleston Police Department (CPD) responded to several calls about two dogs terrorizing people in the Woodbridge Drive area. According to a police scanner report, callers said things like "I am trapped in my car because two vicious dogs are outside", "The dogs just knocked over an elderly man", and "The dogs are chasing my son".
The owner of the dogs, Rick Maddox, was out of town when his pets Betty Boop and Dozer left his home through their doggie door.
He said they have always stayed on his property and never attacked anyone before.
After CPD officers arrived on scene, they tracked the dogs back to Maddox's property.
Sgt. Paul Perdue with the Charleston Police Department said the officers on scene were trapped in their car by the dogs, so they called for backup.
When the second cruiser arrived the dogs ran up to it, giving the other officers a chance to exit their vehicle.
Additionally, Sgt. Perdue said the dogs then turned around and tried attacking both officers. He said his fellow officers had no choice but to shoot and kill both dogs.
"I would never ask someone to put their life on the line to keep from getting bit by a dog" said Sgt. Perdue.
After being shot, Betty Boop jumped into the police cruiser and died, Dozer ran back into Maddox's home where police say they entered through an unlocked door. Sgt. Perdue said Dozer lost a lot of blood, so they called a humane officer to the scene to euthanize him.
Rick Maddox still can't believe that his dogs were capable of terrorizing and entire neighborhood.
"They were both very friendly dogs...they knew no stranger. There wasn't a vicious bone in either dog" says Maddox.
Maddox said he got the news about his pets from his father after police stopped by his house. When Maddox returned home, he found blood all over his drive way and on the couch downstairs where Dozer was euthanized.
He was told that the dogs bodies were collected by a humane officer, but when he called to get them he was told that they had already been destroyed.
He added that he is struggling to find closure because he wasn't there to know exactly what happened.
"I couldn't take my dogs to the family farm and bury them with generations of other family pets" said Maddox.
Officials with the Charleston Police Department also added that Maddox is facing charges of harboring vicious animals.
However, Maddox said he isn't worried about the charges because he doesn't feel that the entire story is being told.
