Cop Sees Bad Men With a Dog in the Woods — Then Realizes What They’re Planning to Do

Deciding a dog should die simply because it is old? Especially when it was obvious that Tunzy was happy and healthy? Too incredibly sad but how Officer Lynch determined what was going on and his actions speaks volumes of his humanity.

As the officer got closer, he saw a second man a short ways off — who was digging a hole.

Lynch asked the men what they were up to, and was told that they were burying their dog. When he looked inside the hole and found it contained just an empty box, the officer realized they were about to kill and bury the playful pup at his feet.

Since the dog appeared to be healthy, Lynch asked them why. One of the men reportedly told him they were going to shoot the dog because she is old.

The officer proceeded to inform the men that they were on private property, and the owner would likely not consent to what they were about to do, but he didn't stop there. After taking law enforcement action against them for illegally having a loaded rifle in their vehicle, Lynch convinced the men to hand the dog over to him.

Officer Lynch drove Tunzy to the no-kill Delta Animal Shelter. The staff was stunned to hear the story and how close the precious pooch was to losing her life because anyone can come to them and drop off their pets at no cost!

Again, Tunzy was so lucky to get away with her life and although we do not have confirmation we can only imagine she is now happily living the remains of her life with a devoted pet family who will love her forever!
