The Lucky Dog Animal Rescue has released a copy of their complaint (PDF) to the District over the incident on Adams Morgan day that saw a K-9 officer kill a pitbull during the festival.  The story is hair-raising, and alleges that the police let the dog, Parrot, bleed to death just off the sidewalk over a period of 1-2 hours.  MPD is still investigating the case, and has significantly limited comment on the matter.

  1. this is just so heartbreaking. Thanks to Lucky Dog and to We Love DC for continuing to pursue justice and cover this story. RIP Parrot…here’s hoping there’s a soft doggie bed, lots of love and belly rubs, and extra treats for you on the other side.
