Target: Chief Constable Andy Marsh, Avon and Somerset Police, Bristol, United Kingdom
Goal: Ensure that Kylo the dog is not put down by police after protecting his owners from an angry and violent mob.
A Staffie/Labrador mix named Kylo saved the lives of his owners in Bristol, UK, and now may be put down by the police. Kylo’s owners, an unnamed couple in their twenties, were attacked by a mob of 20 men when their faithful dog came to the rescue. The attack occurred at the couple’s home—the men reportedly believed it was the home of a pedophile to whom they intended to send their angry and brutal message. Despite the fact that he no longer lived there, the mob did not stop their violence and brutality. They attacked the couple instead.
The thugs spat on the 24-year-old woman and beat the 25-year-old man, breaking his nose and a rib, before Kylo managed to run them off. However, in the aftermath, Kylo was unable to distinguish that the police who arrived were trying to help, and allegedly bit two of the officers. Police have now seized him and are threatening to put him down. Kylo is a hero who saved his family. Sign below to demand that his life be spared.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Chief Constable Marsh,
A Bristol couple was attacked by an angry and violent mob, and their lives were saved by their dog, Kylo. The attackers, heedless of the fact that their true target no longer lived at the house that now belongs to the couple, spat on the woman and laid into the man, breaking his nose and ribs. Kylo ran them off, but in the confusion that followed Kylo—unable to tell that police were not another threat—allegedly bit two officers. Now, Kylo has been taken by your police force, who want to put him down.
Kylo is a hero who saved an innocent couple from violence. He could not have known that the police were there to help. This dog and his owners should not be punished with such cruel finality for their bravery in the face of brutality and violence. I urge you to ensure that Kylo is not put down, and is returned to his owners.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
How was the dog to know that the cops weren’t part of the mob? He was protecting him humans. Killing him would be a travesty! Let the poor little hero live out his life with the people he loves!
The dog dshould not be put down he defended his owners and their home for trespasing
Pls. Save this dog. He is a true hero. Let us know what happens.
He was only taking care of his family… he doesn’t know cops from bad men… please don’t hurt him… he loves his family… too much animal abuse now going on, please don’t add too it, get our an help the poor babies that need ya, these jerks get by straving tbem, leaving them on chains with no food or water, beating them kicking them.. it should be a felony…
So we execute hero’s now, leave that dog alone.
Leave the dog alone, wanting to put him down for protecting his family is just dumb as shit. This dog is a hero. Give him a reward, shower him with respect and treats.. I signed the petition I hope he is not punished for his heroic deed!!!
Please don’t let this poor dog die for protecting his family!
I would think the police would understand this dog was in protective mode. Give this poor hero pup a chance. Come to a compromise. If they are fearful he will bite have him wear a muzzle when out around people. Has he bitten before? Was this an isolated incident? Don’t kill him, that would be wrong!
Poor baby. Needs an award not death. Let the police come over and play with the dog.
The police should talk to the owner first and realize the dog thought the police was going to hurt the owners. Don’t kill the dog he was doing his job…. Or send me the dog.
This dog did the RIGHT thing!! Do not kill him for doing what was right ?
Let him live!
What can you be thinking? It is bad enough this couple was attacked and beaten at their own home. When their dog, a family member, came to their rescue and attacked two officers thinking they were going to harm his family in the confusion, your solution is to kill the dog?
He is their hero. Their pet and a member of their family. You cannot put him down for doing his job! Please do not give the abusers the pleasure of seeing this couple suffer harm at the hands of the police. Thank You for reading these pleas for fair and kind treatment of this special dog. I beg you to do right by this very loved and brave pup!
He shouldn’t be killed for doing his job.
Let him live
Good dog
Pls don’t kill this hero. Have some compassion.
Dogs are supposed to protect owners..so do not kill him for doing what he has to do..
Officers, if it were you and your family being brutally beaten by a mob you couldn’t control and your faithful beloved pet rescued you and yours……you wouldn’t want him to be put down.
As officers you understand the rush of adrenaline when you are in a life or death situation. Sometimes its difficult to know who is bad or good. Please put yourselves in his paws. Let him live. He deserves to be called a hero too!
Let this beautiful fur buddy live he only done his job like you all train police dogs he protected his owner new his owners was in danger so he try to help and save because he love them so let him live
