"acted in "good faith""
I'm reminded of an act of terrorism that occurred in Canada and most likely in the US and South America as well,where law enforcement agents were sent to villages to "destroy" the "Indian dogs"/"village dogs" citing they were "disease carrying" "half wild beasts" that were "a threat" to "much superior European purebred" dogs and " good people". These law enforcement agents shot kids pets, trappers sled dogs, hunting dogs, harrier dogs, pursuit dogs and watch dogs in full view of the people that specifically bred the dogs for those reasons and raised them specially as to their breeding. Even children, my great grandfather being one of them, witnessed this systemic slaughter. Documentation(hence the quotation marks)has been uncovered and is now available to the public.
Because of that act of terrorism there are only 6 out of an estimated 112 and quite possibly many more
preColumbian breeds of New World (American) dogs.
Unfortunately, even today, some police officers tend to take the law into their own hands.
I have personally witnessed law enforcement agents shooting to death a pet dog defending his owner's children from unannounced, uninvited, unwelcome company. It was just a 40 lb mutt but nonetheless a protective one just doing what pet dogs do.
I'm glad the owners took legal action.
"insurance"...... ....commerce!
"good faith". .hmph! ...OK....
