CENTRAL PARK, Wash. (AP) — A Grays Harbor County sheriff’s officer says the owner of two dogs that attacked and killed a neighbor’s dog in Central Park, Wash., has had the animals euthanized.

Chief Criminal Deputy Dave Pimentel tells KXRO that B.J. Pitts took the pit bull and shepherd mix to a veterinarian on Thursday with the help of the county animal control officer.

The dogs were found Saturday in a neighbor’s yard, covered with blood after they apparently entered the yard, attacked and killed the neighbor’s 3-year-old yellow Labrador.

Pimentel says Pitts wanted to make things right with the community.
