Officers contained the animal in a garden in Lannett Road at about 1.50pm after the dog attacked the owner after he tried to put his collar back on, a Gloucestershire Police spokesman said.
Police failed to stun the dog, an American bulldog, with a taser and were forced to kill it.And are the public thankful that another dangerous dog has been dealt with by the police?

It's all down to their childhoods.
Indeed!
