Country Style Policing
We have got to party with these guys:
- A sheriff’s deputy had to deploy a Taser on his own K-9 officer after it bit a cow while on a burglary call.
Deputies responded to a report of a burglary in progress on Drivers Lane in the Pleasant Hill community around 4 p.m. on Wednesday. The first deputy on scene secured the location with his K-9 and waited on additional officers to assist with entering the residence.
A cow nearby distracted the dog, and he subsequently bit the cow, according to the Georgetown County Sheriff’s Office. In an attempt to protect the cow from injuries, the deputy tased the K-9, according to the report. The dog was taken into leash control and returned to the deputy’s vehicle.
Reacting to the dog, the cow kicked the deputy and property owner. Their injuries were determined to be minor.
And the end result?
- The original burglary call proved to be unfounded.
We are going to love small town living one day.

I won't lie, my career goal is basically to stockpile enough money that I'm able to move away from the shitty cities and still maintain a decent standard of living. Less problems and stress.
Moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! K-9 wants beef!
In about a week, the farmer will send the cow to the butcher, and the copper along with his K-9 pal will have a nice steak dinner.
Yummmalicious! Nothing like freshly butchered cow on the grill - esp if it's with some freshly picked sweet corn (none of that right now, but still - brings back great memories)
I think that dog is ruined for police work.
I have heard that once they are traumatized on duty they are finished.
Seriously, the value of the cow was probably less than the cost of a trained police dog.
10,000.00 many years ago if I recall correctly.

I grew up with german shepherds..firmly believe they are not intelligent. They are empty headed which makes them trainable. That with their speed, toughness, bravery and tolerance of pain is why they are used tactically.
Off Topic. CFD eng 124 responded to a car fire at 3300 Wilson, 1 FF shot in leg to Illinois Masonic.
It turns out that some animals are less equal than others.
Big MOO there.
K-9 Officer is the dog?
Isn’t the dog handler the K-9 Officer, and the the dog is the K-9?

017 has turned into a disgusting and increasingly filthy shithole filled with illegal aliens.
Viva Ciudad Sanctuario!
The days of Andy and Barney are long gone for rural and suburban policing thanks to meth labs and criminals fleeing cities so they can enjoy more obscurity (or so they think).
However, back in the Andy and Barney style days, this city guy in Iowa was blocking a road with his patrol car because cows had gone through an open fence gate and were on the roadway. As I tried to convince them to get back where they belong (an exercise in futility), a farmer drove up and offered to help. His first suggestion was to move the patrol car and shut off the lights which made no sense to me because I would be endangering motorists. But he opined that the cows are curious and attracted to the flashing red lights. So I did as he said and, well, the cows one by one returned to their pasture and I secured the gate and the farmer and I drove off.
Later that night I stopped a guy for speeding. Took forever for him to pull over. Chicago resident who had a $20 bill wrapped around his license.
"is this yours," I asked.
"No," he replied.
"Well, if it isn't yours and it isn't mine it must be nobody's" and I let the $20 blow into the air until it fell onto the shoulder of the highway.
"Now get out of your car and pick it up. Do you know where Anamosa is?"
"No," he said.
"You're going to find out. That's where the reformatory is. And it's also the county seat and you're going there to post bond."
Of course it wasn't just "city guys."
There was the guy from Wisconsin who was 20 over in a school zone. I wrote him for 10 over but he nonetheless opined that if I was the chief of police in Mount Horeb where he owns a factory I would lose my job if I didn't rip the ticket up.
When we got to the office to post bond I called the chief of police in Mount Horeb and told him what his "good citizen" had said. "We'll just have to see about that," the chief said. "Can you burn me a copy of the ticket."
On my way to visit relatives near Mount Horeb I stopped and saw the chief who showed me the ticket taped to the visor his patrol car. He said Mr. Good Citizen was the most careful driver in town. When he complained to the mayor about being followed around by the local constabulary, the mayor told him that he "heard what he did in Iowa" and that the officers had just as much right to be on the road. Ahhh, justice.
(to be continued)
And then there was the bank robber when I worked in the Des Moines area.
Rural banks used to have a lot of cash on hand and some guy was hitting them. The FBI was setting up something at its Omaha office and an agent friend and academy instructor stopped off to have breakfast with me on his way to the home office. I took him to a place where they make hot cinnamon rolls so big they fill an entire plate.
While there I got a call of a bank alarm across the street. We crossed the street, caught the robber coming out the door, handcuffed him and went back to finish our cinnamon rolls.
That was my second bank robbery. The first was in the academy. On our lunch break six of us went to a bank on a Friday to cash our checks. We stood behind a guy who apparently had bad penmanship because the teller couldn't read the note so he told him to put the money in the bad. We, of course, drew our weapons. If you're going to rob a bank, don't do it with a half dozen cops behind you.
And finally there was a guy sleeping in a Lincoln off the interstate. I ran the Illinois plates and the dispatcher, who could have been Barney's sister, came back and said, "It doesn't say 'no record' but there's a bunch of letters 'E-V-DASH-C-I-L-C-P-D-oh-oh-oh-oh.'" Stolen car linked to an armed robbery and shooting in Chicago. A trooper stuck his shotgun in an open window and placed it behind the driver's neck. .357 in my hand I rapped on the driver's side window and said, "Good morning, sir. Would you look at the officer behind me" at which point the shotgun was in his face. Removed him from the car and found evidence, a gun and a knife on him and a handcuff key in his belt.
At the jail he said, "You guys really had me." I said, "You mean with the shotgun?" "Nah," he replied. "I didn't know how to act. You guys are too nice. In Chicago a cop doesn't call you 'sir.'"
Rural police work pre-meth = long moments of boredom punctuated by brief bursts of terror (and backup that could be 40 to 70 miles away.)
Are there videos. Would mare a great segment for Live Pd.. dog bites cow, cow kicks cop AND BITING DOG. Lesson learned is done pass off the cow. PETA looking to charge Both cop and K9 FOR CRULITY TO ANIMALS. Farmer looking to sue cop and K9 for cow abuse. Cop looking to sue farmer for being kicked by his cow. K9 looking good to sue both farmer and cop for their actions. Lawyers in town rubbing their hands in anticipation of all the cash about to change hands. You just can't make this up. Truth is always more entertaining than fiction.
Sounds like an episode of the Andy Griffith show. Barony with a K9.
Dog had a yearn for some fresh beef. Nothing better than farm fresh.
Bet PETA will be all over this. Cop and farmer hand K 9 officer in real trouble.

Taser, Eddie Bauer Edition
On a roll...
I worked with a guy who liked to sneak up on parked cars. One night I got to the car first and it wasn't two lovers in heat but a gang bang at knifepoint. I don't know who shit in his pants first: the moron on whose temple I had placed the barrel of a cocked Model 19 or my partner who had been taking his sweet time getting up to the car.
Besides judges that backed us up one thing we did have in the boonies was working radios. Statewide. And when an officer in a town seven miles away called in a plate on a pickup truck he was following the Des Moines dispatcher jumped in before the plate could be run and said it had just been reported stolen. The chase was on but it ended when the pickup ran out of gas. You don't get macho points for running out of gas while you're being chased. In addition to the truck being stolen we found beer and smokes from a grocery store burglary. Kind of helped that they bagged the "loot" in bags with the store's name and logo on them. Duh.
The grocery store was in a town of 300 people. On weekends the 62 year old town maintenance man worked as the "night marshal" with a fireball on his pickup truck. He stopped some kids who kicked the shit out of him. We sealed off all of the roads and within an hour had over 30 officers looking for them. When located one rocket scientist made the mistake of taking a swing at a Missouri highway patrolman. Game over. 35 on four trumps four on one. Their initial court appearance was held in the hospital.
Despite the traffic off the Interstate -- which we called "the sewer" because they would flush it at one end in Chicago and Denver on the other -- we didn't worry as much about guns as we did hazardous chemicals. There were anhydrous ammonia tanks all over (same stuff used in the Oklahoma City federal building bombing and at the University of Wisconsin bombing) and some of us had primitive hazmat suits just in case. You might be able to duck and dodge bullets and return fire but there's not much you can do about leaking chemicals.
So what did three years of working in the boonies (just out of the Army) teach me? First, you learned how to deal with people. If you're lucky your backup was seven or eight minutes away but it could be 70 miles away so you learned how to handle things on your own. I swear many of the guys I worked with in later years could use that training. We learned how to talk to people and how to control them without force if possible. When most of your dirtbags said "please" and "thank you" handcuffs were not used in every arrest. The other thing was that there was no bureaucracy to get in the way. You had to make decisions on your own, for better or worse. No sergeants, commanders, policy manuals, wear your hat, etc. You just had to do the right thing -- and hope to Hell you did. And the rural cops were pretty much in two camps: "local yokels" or extremely bright, creative people who might not fit well in a bureaucracy. Like Forrest Gump's box of chocolates you never knew which one you were going to get. Hours long, pay shitty but some damn good experience.
Now if only we could get "Dueling Banjos" to play in the background of that event it would be super hilarious
Is the cow going to be ok Uncle Lar?
well little tommy in about a week he is going to be the farmers evening meal
jeez what a shame uncle lar!
As long as the dog was black and the cow was brown or black da communerty won’t march. Color-on-color crime isn’t worth their outcry.
Retired and spend most days in my Kenosha vacation home, 100,000 people but a small town to me, 900 feet from Lake Michigan and the bike path, 4 blocks from the boat ramp, can run 5 or 6 errands before noon with minimal traffic, parking is always free and abundant, never had a bum ask me for money, never been robbed, in 10 minutes I'm west of I90 and in corn fields on my motorcycle or bicycle, and the pumpkin farms too, usually don't carry a gun and wear body armor, the biggest threat to safety are drunk drivers, people give me thumbs up if I wear a bush, McCain, or NRA t shirt, property taxes $2100/ year, no need to get a license plate for my boat or jet ski or motorcycle trailers, keep my illinois residency so I pay no state taxes on pension or social security, door to door from chicago about 60-75 minutes midday or late at nite. Oh, sales tax on stuff , including alcohol, is 5.5percent and zero on food. It's not Mayberry, but even milwaukee is a small town to me after 68 years in Chicago. Yeah, small town living is good.
"Cow Gonna be alright Uncle Larry?"...
"The Cow will be just fine Little Tommy"...
ANIMAL Stories...!
Man that was when radio was radio in this city...
maybe they need to feed this K9 dog a steak once in awhile.🤣🐕
Please tell us if the cow was a Black Angus or not, because, if it is, then our local agitator would need to go out there to protest police brutality on a minority cow...or something.
Has the ACLU stepped in yet (American Cow Liberties Assn) A farm animals consent decree will be next, enforced by the Univ. of Chicago with a huge Govt. grant, as usual. The Loevy brothers were seen speeding to the scene.
Dude shouldn’t be a handler if he can’t physically pull his partner off a bite.
Really good canine teams can see the dog disengage from a bite on a simple command, if not call the dog off mid-approach prior to engagement.
And 135am couldn’t be further from reality.
To Hot Fuzz: America Division you should have transferred to the Traffic Division in the 60s this job isn’t “ fins and blowjobs anymore”. No more white hats and radar cars. Now it’s baseball caps and body cams.
Were the deputy and the K-9 on a steak-out?
Okay, that was bad, but I'm leaving it.

Just a head's up:
FBI warns of "looking for love" scams online.
People strike up a relationship, then ask for money,
sometimes send flowers, ect. Over 250 people scammed
in past 2 years in nearby Rust Belt town. This on the radio
as a public service announcement just before Valentine's Day.

Before you lose your mind and bet money on a stupid game
today, think of what that money could buy if you lose it all:
food, gasoline, car repairs, medicine, heat, light, water.
Many have come before you and thought they could beat
the system too. Buyer beware.

Poor K-9 just wanted a bit of steak on the hoof...mmmm hhmmm
Add legalized gambling and pot to that lunacy list.....

Replace 'cow' with 'norwegian'.... same thing.
The incident would make a great Gary Larson ‘The Far Side’ cartoon.
A farmer in long johns holding a lantern behind an isosceles stance deputy engaging a frizzled haired zapped dog with the electric current streams shooting out, the tasered Holstein cow hee-haw kicking another deputy, all the while a brood of chickens are sneaking out the back door of the farm house after looting bottled beer heading back to the coop to what appears to be a super bowl party.
-
Groot’s bloated COPA sent their PETA Response Unit to find any iota of CPD involvement.
I have often thought of tasing some of the people I have had to work with.
1310 plus Discharge Notify CPIC Copa interview Cow.
The AC/DC song popped into my head as I read this. "Givin a dog the bone! Givin a dog the bone!"
Obviously not a well trained K9 or handler. Handler should have been able to call his dog off without using a taser!!!
I left the job 20 years ago and moved into a small town. It has been great! Real people, a lot less bullshit, and a LOT of self policing. There are a lot of quiet stories about how neighbors help neighbors and the police aren't needed. Oh, I forgot, three homicides (all cleared by arrest) over 20 years, none in the last 7. There has been a recent uptick in robbery, 3 in the last year, all cleared by arrest of the big city offenders. No residential burglaries in 5 years. And the topper is offenders actually go to the joint for long periods of time. People here actually volunteer to sit on juries. My biggest worry is meeting a real coyote (not the urban coyote) taking out the garbage. This just might be ex-copper's heaven.
Should of let fido have at it.pull its horns,wipe its ass and pass the A1.
And in other Animal Stories:
“Coyote who attacked boy in Lincoln Park being rehabilitated at Lake County wildlife facility; ‘We witnessed no aggressive behavior while in our care.” (Source: Lake County News)
Proving once again, jail works.
Of course once that b-b pellet was removed and it no longer is being terrorized by the protected violent armed feral nocturnal spirited youth, the animal now fed a regular proper diet, given free housing and free healthcare, converting it to a dependent Democrat was easy.
Why it works for only for animals, I don’t know.
Sounds like a blockbuster country music hit
Will the cow file a beef?
That cow won't give milk for at least a week... Farmer sues the Sheriff's department.... Watch....
So the dog had a beef with the cow? That’s a shocker.
Radio. A better time, a better age, agreed.

Take it from Colonel Klink, Belgian Malinois are the animal of choice.
"The days of Andy and Barney are long gone for rural and suburban policing thanks to meth labs and criminals fleeing cities so they can enjoy more obscurity (or so they think)". You are right meth changed everything. I was talking to some people that had grown up in northern small town Maine and they commented how different it is from the old days. Drugs are a problem there, like everywhere.
Look up TKO8television on youtube, they show court from Harrison County, Arkansas. Interesting to see how they do it there and how many of the offenses in the mostly white county are for drugs violations.
I thought the dog was supposed to release when the owner commanded it to do so. "Nine"
Thats no way to talk about a mans wife.
Is the cow going to be alright, Uncle Lar?
Yes, little Tommy.
