Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton signs a bill for HF 141-Injury to K9 Felony for doing either substantial or great bodily harm to a Police K9, also death, naturally, but the bill added levels of protection as death was already in the statute as a felony. This dog, "Major," is paralyzed and his back legs are in a cart.
