  1. My heart breaks for Doggie Kolt — a preventable death — due to depraved indifference & negligence Kolt DIED — This Officer should NEVER be partnered with a Dog — one MUST be an Animal LOVER — otherwise, bad things happen — who’s in charge of this cruel, hateful outfit?

  2. These K9 cops are supposed to show younger people to respect and love their partner. I think he needs to be put in a hot car and left there close to death so he can feel the pain he made this poor dog suffered and loose his job and retirement and never own another animal.

  3. First off is the policeman stupid. Why was he given and dog. It sounds like he was given a dog and didn’t know the first thing about a K-9 dog. The dogs go through expensive training to be an officer. He should be fired and not allowed another dog as long as he lives. He is a murderer just like the fools he arrests. What does he do to people he arrests?? If you abuse an animal how long will it be before he abuses a human? Or wife or kids. He is sick and needs help.

  4. THIS COP KILLED HIS PARTNER, K-9 KOLT SO HE SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH MURDER!!!!!!!!!!!
    THAT POOR INNOCENT BOY DESERVED TO BE TREATED RIGHT, WITH RESPECT & DIGNITY, NOT LEFT TO DIE A HORRIBLE DEATH. THIS JERK OFF OFFICER SHOULD BE LOCKED IN A HOT CAR & LEFT TO DIE SO HE SEES HOW IT FEELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    KILL THE SOB BASTARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    REST IN PEACE KOLT🙏🌈❤️

  5. This is proof that anyone who is incapable of taking full responsibility for looking after such an important part of this job is unfit to hold the responsibility of the job!!!! The way we treat animals REFLECTS WHO WE ARE- BARBARIANS WITH DINASOUR BEHAVIOURS DO NOT BELONG IN. 2023

  6. Police dog treatment not only in the U.S where dogs are bullied and beaten is what we don’t see, most of these dogs have a miserable life and have no protection as far as animal laws go plain animal cruelty!

  7. This vile severe dog abusing scumbag definitely requires instigation of the death penalty and nothing less.
    A slow and agonizing death for this evil cretin is essential.

  8. Lock this idiot in a hot car and chain all the doors so he can’t get out. There is absolutely NO excuse for this to have happened.

  9. FIRE this BAD cop! At a minimum, he needs to be fired with no compensation. Shame on the police department for not monitoring this poor dog. I am for law and order and am generally pro-police, but there is NO WAY this can rotten behavior be tolerated: cops’ torturing K9s and killing residents’ dogs when they are just protecting their property. FIRE HIM!

  10. Charge this SOB with killing a police officer. He should suffer the same fate as if an average citizen killed a policeman.

  11. WTF, that “punishment” is far not enough!!! Hang that evil devil by his balls and make him suffer!!! He belongs in hell!!!!
