Petition: Demand Justice for Teddy, the Deaf Blind Dog Shot by a Missouri Officer

Teddy, a tiny deaf and blind Shih Tzu, slipped out of his fenced yard and wandered into a neighbor’s garden — confused, harmless, and simply lost. Instead of helping reunite him with his person, a responding officer allegedly chased the frightened dog, gave up, and shot him dead. This cruel outcome has devastated Teddy’s guardian and shocked animal lovers everywhere. Sign the petition now to demand real accountability.

City officials defended the killing, claiming it followed protocol. The officer even alleged he believed Teddy had rabies, despite the dog’s clear disabilities and small size. An investigation was promised, yet there’s no sign one has begun. Adding insult, the officer reportedly received $16,000 to leave the force and move on.

Teddy’s life mattered. Vulnerable animals deserve protection — not violence and excuses. Sign the petition now to demand an independent investigation and justice for Teddy.
