How on earth can you sue the police dog simply for being – well – a dog?

One of the defendants has more than a leg to stand on in a lawsuit filed by a convicted drug dealer.

Andi has four legs. He's a dog used by the Athens County Sheriff's Department.
County Prosecutor C. David Warren said to his knowledge, it's the first time the county's dog has ever been singled out as a defendant. Warren has volunteered to handle Andi's defense personally.

"That dog could've done something to me or one of my attendants," said Wayne Francis Green, 46, of Albany, who filed the suit Nov. 18 in Athens County Common Pleas Court.

And the nature of the claim against Andi?

Green said Wednesday that he felt endangered by Andi's presence.

"They've got a mean ol' dog, you know what I'm saying? I take that pretty serious," Green said, adding, "I'm a dog lover, but that's the limit."

So the dog did nothing at all – he was just present.

But you have to love this part. Someone wih the county has a sense of humor about the situation.

Last week, Andi the German shepherd was informed that he's being sued, sort of. With a paw print, the dog "signed" the paper indicating he had been formally served with the complaint.

Still, Green is very serious about his idiotic complaint, proving that he has been using his own “merchandise”.

Green said he wants prosecutors to look into the dog's actions. "I want him charged with several different felony counts."

Felony counts? You canÂ’t charge him with a felony, you moron. HeÂ’s a DOG!
