Yet on the other side of it you have a guy who is out working in his yard, unaware of any 911 call, and sees this random idiot cop setting foot on his property with his hand on his gun making threats about killing his dog.
Conclusion: Cop was obviously a cat guy.

Poorly handled by the cop. Should have called the attention of the owner verbally.. Then informed the owner of why he was there and then asked to have the dog held so he would approach and talk. Simple and easy.
Poor training and poor human interaction skills could have turned this into something bad.
