Ex Cop Shot My Dog
Location: Idaho
My sweet dog, Lyla, was shot and killed yesterday, and I need advice on what we can do to get justice.
She was only a year and a half old, a 35–40 lb shepherd mix and the sweetest dog ever. We live on a family member’s 100-acre ranch, so she’s free-range and usually spends her days hanging out with my boyfriend while he works outside.
Yesterday, she roamed toward the edge of the property. My boyfriend heard a gunshot and a squeal and ran over to find her dead on the county road. The neighbor was standing at the edge of his own property and said he shot her because she was chasing his cat. He used an AR and shot her in the chest, killing her almost instantly. My boyfriend took photos of the blood trail and where she ended up passing, which was across the road from the neighbors property.
As far as I know, under Idaho law, shooting someone’s dog isn't legal unless it's to protect livestock, which doesn't include cats. Does anyone have advice on whether taking him to court is feasible? Do we have an actual chance at winning, or would it end up being a waste of time?
