Quick side plot: I once got a rottweiler dog cornered for the unknownth time and attempted to capture it as I was tired of it escaping it's yard and turning it over to the local shelter. The dog constantly cornered folks in an aggressive manner, in their own yards. I call a a "Master K-9" handler out to assist. He pulls taser as he approaches the dog, the dog stands up, raises lip and fur, growling, and approaches this self proclaimed "K-9 Handler". The K-9 officer turns and takes off running. Eventually another Officer arrives on scene, opens his back door and says "Want to go for a ride?". The dog's behavior changes from aggressive to happy and hops right on it. I then tell the handler and partner that if only I knew that all I had to do was ask nicely...
Back to Story: So he chases this dog for a few blocks, and eventually calls in via radio "I cannot capture the 4 legged suspect".
I advise via radio "Open you back door to your patrol car, he might hop in."
Partner: "I don't think he like's the police. He's not obeying my commands."
I couldn't resist: "Did you advise the suspect to quit resisting?"
. I do have to give them credit though, I don't know that I could do it.
