     We have an update for you now on the dog that was shot in the head by a Bradley County Sheriff's Deputy.
     We first told you about Kayce Thursday.
     A deputy shot her in the head after she escaped from her yard.
     Officials say Kayce tried to bite the officer.
     The dogs owner, Ashley Ward, sent these 911 tapes to us.
     We did not receive this tape from the county, we got it from Ward.
     If you listen closely. You can hear the mis-communication.
Caller: "That thing, it didn't bite me. I told it no, I just froze."
Dispatch: "He advised the dog is in the neighbors yard. The one that bit him."
     Again, News 12 did not receive this tape from Bradley County.
     We will follow up with this story and bring you the latest as it becomes available.

Seems like at least one reader can see things that aren't published. The officer didn't say the dog bit him...he said it tried to bite him. Trust me, one try would be all it would take for me to shoot the dog. I was bitten and I had to take the rabies shots back when the series was 14 days long. On the Cherokee Bus every day from East Brainerd to the doctor's at Tepper's and back again. I will NEVER be bitten again. Before you folks criticize someone for doing something you don't understand try doing the Officer's job for a week.
