Oh, the logic here! He didn't want the dog tucked safely away in his truck so he sticks it into a newspaper machine? Whoa. And to think this is someone driving a semi-truck on our highways...scary!
I'm curious as to what the citation was; I doubt if there is a statute or ordinance specifically prohibiting placing a dog in a newspaper dispenser. On the other hand, a person can be charged for leaving a dog in a motor vehicle.
I asked this same person if the dog will bite, no he said. I reach to pet it and the dog snaps at me. I say, I thought you said the dog will not bite. That is not my dog I am told.. In this situation the dog is a reader of the paper and avoids fast foods. If the Officer would have asked the dog, we would know much more. Can we say Libya? Also we can guess who the dog endorses for President. And the owner for Congress for finding housing in a creative way.
I'm a little conflicted on this one, as it appears the truck driver was trying to do the right thing for his dog, and no harm came to it. However, in other circumstances, I can see where the charge might be appropriate. I guess no matter how you look at it, it wasn't the best choice he could have made.
I moderate comments submitted to this blog. I redact profanity, inane off-topic comments, bigoted garbage, personal attacks against others, and anything else I feel like deep sixing. I let a lot of stuff through that does not reflect my own opinion or that of the City of Lincoln or the departments I manage. If you post a comment, you never know where it will go: this is all open to the public, so post at your own risk.

At least it was USA Today and not LJS; imagine the horror!
Steve,
Forcing the dog to read the LJS would have required adding cruelty charges to the ticket.
Gun Nut
Steve: LOL! LOL!
Of course, LJS does have its place in regard to dogs; it's called potty training.

I know what would happen if I left my dog in there.

What can anyone say after that?
I/m not sure why it was necessary to issue a citation. What was so wrong for such a short period of time?
Steve,
Sorry about the delayed response. Cruelty to Animals.
