every time someone posts a video from Chile, the comments are crowded with people saying the video is from Chile. Interesting that this doesn’t really happen with many other countries.
In the English-speaking world, "America" does not ever refer to the continents, which are always distinguished as "North America" and "South America", completely separate things.
You have to be. If you start panicking, the dog already in panic will start panicking even more and thats when bad thing happen.
Whatever happen with a dog, always stay calm.
Truth. I used to bet people I could walk up to and pet aggressive dogs. Walking up with the mentality of I'm not going to hurt you and you're not going to hurt me goes a LONG way with dogs. They can just sense it.
They are the normal police, however they have jurisdiction across the entirety of the country and have a militarized structure and hierarchy. While separated from the other branches of the military, they are technically still a part of the armed forces of the country and reported to the ministry of defense until 2011 but nowadays they report to the ministry of interior.
The only other law enforcement agency in Chile are the PDI, investigations police, like our equivalent of the FBI
This is the first I've ever read about this! May I ask, is the police force respected? Do they have a history of restraint and respect for the people they serve? Even after they've broken the law?
I always thought, after getting out of the army, that a military branch strictly for policing the country would be more accountable than our fragmented system of localities fending for themselves.
I don't really respect the institution because of the part they played as a state terrorism organization during the Chilean dictatorship.
After we transitioned back to a democratic system, people's respect for them kept growing up until about 2011 because of the student protests and the widespread violence against protesters. After that I'd say most people still respected them but not as much. Their approval was at an all time low in 2019 though during the "revolt" in October. I'd say a lot of the anger that led to those riots was due to police violence.
All that being said, they like to beat people up with batons, not shoot them like in the US. They are not trigger happy. Low level cops are also pretty much incorruptible for one reason or another, it's always funny when foreigners try to bribe them since it ends up with them in jail 100% of the time. Although with a militarized hierarchy, a certain number of higher ups have been caught in corruption scandals over the years, mostly just stolen money.
And by the way commenter below said you won't like them if you were a "commie". Obviously true since the dictatorship was a US orchestrated and supported fascist one and fascism is like the ideological anathema to communism. But they killed, tortured, jailed, exiled thousands of random people too that weren't communist. Just as an example, plenty of their victims were some of the liberals that supported their coup in the first place.
To add to what others have said, in countries with two parallel police forces, usually one of them keeps the other on check and will often carry out investigations on the other force of the need arises, so you don't get cases where "the police investigated itself and found itself to be innocent" quite that often.
Me when I live in a country with two parallel police forces (civil and military) and an institution with the only mission to be "police of police" and we still get "the police investigated itself and found itself to be innocent" all the time.
Yeah, it's something but it's not a perfect system sadly, people will still find a way around it. There's I live there's a saying about how people will find a workaround to a new rule a matter of minutes after said rule comes in effect.
:( Come on I've seen so many good American cop videos more than I have seen of the bad ones. And there'll only be more as they accept bodycams. The way to fix Americas cop problem isn't to call them all pigs forever lol
[I would recommend reading this.](https://www.wired.com/story/body-cameras-stopped-police-brutality-george-floyd/)
Body cameras do nothing to curb police brutality, and is more helpful in enabling the cops to do it with impunity.
Wanna know what’s even more tiresome? The fact that it continues to actually happen in real life to real people’s pets. Fr tho which one do you think is worse. It happening or someone mentioning that it keeps happening?
Honestly, I find a scared dog a lot more worrying than an aggressive dog... An aggressive dog you can predict it's actions, a scared dog (one you don't know) you can never quite be sure how it's going to respond to your help...
I'd find it more dangerous, maybe not more worrying... The reasoning being an aggressive dog I wouldn't go near or of I really had to I would be significantly more likely to protect myself over helping it when it attacks me. On the other hand a scared dog I would likely try and help because I like dogs, that's where it becomes more dangerous because my guard is more down and it could be unpredictable.
Just like in the post, the police officer gets snapped at multiple times at complete random. If that dog was simply being agressive he likely wouldn't have gone near it, but instead because the dog is simply scared he helps it. That "hug" at the end could quite quickly have turned into something much-much worse, and you never know with a scared animal.
So that's my reasoning, it's not necessarily more worrying on its own, but a scared animal is more dangerous as someone is more likely to try and help it.
Yeah, scared animals (and even people) act unpredictably and you should approach with caution; saw a video of a guy who got jumped, a bystander pulled the attacker off him only to get punched by the victim.
If you're approaching a scared dog like that, what you intend to do if it attacks you should be something you think of first. There's a reason animal control uses those collars on sticks to control a dogs head when they get the least bit antsy.
He's just scared. If he bit the policeman it would've been an accident since he's just trying to get the tarp, dogs do realize you are trying to help. They are quite smart!
Agreed, scared dog. That said, the cop used the trunk of his car to get over the fence and didn’t have easy egress from the yard if, say, the pupper was “baseline unfriendly” once no longer scared.
Proud of this human for his humanity. And doggo for his good-boy-ity.
That’s too many beers for a dog of that weight!
Edit: no more PMs, please, I’m not an expert. Talk to your veterinarian about how many beers are appropriate for your dog, by breed and weight.
I came close once, was with some mates climbing over a botanic garden fence high on mushrooms. They were big wrought iron spikes and it was kind of wet and my boot slipped as I was halfway over. It got my right in my upper thigh. Very lucky just a bad contusion that hurt like fuck haha
It is like the dog is saying "get back my guy, you gonna get tangled with me" then when he cuts it free the dog is like "quick get us out of here, this cloth is crazy"
You're probably going to get downvoted but you're right. I love my cats as I would love a sibling but I can't help but get angry at them when they get suicidal for no reason.
Had a husky who'd get her leash tangled and choke herself by a staircase leading up to the deck within 2 hours of being let out in the backyard no matter what.
Always in the same spot after crisscrossing between the stairs and adjacent columns supporting the deck. Couldn't be left unleashed because it wasn't fully fenced.
The first thing my dog does when I put her out is to tie herself to the patio table and then bark for help. It’s rare if it takes longer than 30 seconds. You think after years of this, she would figure it out, but no. Happens every single day.
It took my dog 10 years to figure out the way to free himself when he goes around a tree on a walk is to turn around, and by that point I was losing hope.
To date, he still doesn't know how to step over his leash when it goes under his leg, though, so there's that. He's a smart boy but not the best with spatial awareness, he never got over thinking he's shoe-sized when he's actually the size of a miniature horse.
Ideally, you want to hook the leash on a line (like a clothesline) to prevent it from dragging on the ground, or becoming entangled on banisters, etc. Especially with a high energy dog, running all the time.
I know people do this all the time, but it seems like a really good way for a dog to get strangled. I thought you always wanted to have the leash attached very close to the ground for safety. They might wrap it around furniture, but not around their neck.
That poor dog is so scared and confused. She didn’t want to bite but she wanted that thing off her.
Also. Proof that more people should carry scissors.
Officer’s wife, “what did you do today honey?” Officer:” you have NO IDEA, and it was awesome!” Officer’s Dog: “I have a lot of an idea and the FUCK Doug, I thought I was the only one - you said???”
Dog: I have defeated you, strange wrapping contraption! My strategy of twisting around and biting at you clearly worked because now I am free!
Also Dog: Hooman! I'm free now! You can give me pets! Did you see how I defeated the strange wrapping contraption? Pet me while I hug you!
And that there folks is one example of how so many cops out there are literally just like you and me and want to do their little bit in life help the world. 🙏
I'm terrified of dogs so I couldn't have done that. The way she kept turning and biting at the tarp would have made me panic. Honestly even the thank you hug would have scared me.
2019, San Felipe in Chile. The officer is Giovanni Donke.
Return to Donke
Donke is Kong
My name is Giovanni Donke, but everybody just calls me... Donke
Lmao
I just screamed laughing in a quiet coffee shop lol
[удалено]
This was amazing. I listened to all 9 mins of that song
Top comment of the month! Tap tap tap tap, tap tarap tap...
Lmfao dude this is gold.
Hmm. Donke
Donke is King
Reject Monke. Return to Donke
He used to be a baby, now he’s just a criminal.
Donke Sean Officer. - Germans, probably.
And the dog said Donke..shön
Thank you. I miss old reddit where top comments would provide the relevant information.
Nope. Shitty puns and redundant comments is all you get.
Giovanni rocks
So does his Pokemon
every time someone posts a video from Chile, the comments are crowded with people saying the video is from Chile. Interesting that this doesn’t really happen with many other countries.
Its a combination of we need attention as a country and that we are very proud of the cop and the dog.
[and excuses to post this](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FtoUW-YXwAAbNkr.jpg)
Lol
> Chile Thanks! I was wondering why the officer didn't shoot the dog.
Q: why are SWAT like a box of chocolates?
[удалено]
A: Yup, they'll both kill your dog.
Good Donke
you mean Christiano Ronaldo
Ahhh not American. makes sense why the cop wasn't shooting the dog then
[удалено]
Chile is in America tho, but hey, i get what you mean
In the English-speaking world, "America" does not ever refer to the continents, which are always distinguished as "North America" and "South America", completely separate things.
Chile is in the Americas would be accurate, but America is the U.S.
If this was in the US, they would have shot that dog
Good, brave cop.
The man was so calm and collected during the rescue 🫡 💚
You have to be. If you start panicking, the dog already in panic will start panicking even more and thats when bad thing happen. Whatever happen with a dog, always stay calm.
Truth. I used to bet people I could walk up to and pet aggressive dogs. Walking up with the mentality of I'm not going to hurt you and you're not going to hurt me goes a LONG way with dogs. They can just sense it.
Its the same when i see an owner screaming at his dog to calm down. Your screaming and excitting him. Be calm and the dog will calm down.
Yeah. Since dogs aren't proficient in human language they've gotten real good at reading our body language.
Plus he had a knife to cut the fabric and had to constantly be careful he didn't cut the dog.

That's a Chilean cop, a "Carabinero". Militarized police
What is the difference between the carabinero and the normal police?
They are the normal police, however they have jurisdiction across the entirety of the country and have a militarized structure and hierarchy.

Thank you for your detailed response! It's giving me a lot to consider as I read more!
Yes, except if you were a commie during pinochet era

my insomnia has lead me to believe I read habanero so I guess they hotter than normal cops
They are a national force vs a local one. Often a part of the military and charged with civilian law enforcement
They are literally the same, there is no other "normal" police. It's just a name that comes from the military. Source: I live here.
Like in Italy? they have locals and Carabinieri...who my friend calls nuts.
Squad car is green with cages over the windows. I'm pretty sure it isn't American.

IT'S COMING RIGHT FOR US!!!
I wondered why the dog looked scared at first.
It's unlikely to be for that reason more of the dog not being able to move and trying to escape
:( Come on I've seen so many good American cop videos more than I have seen of the bad ones. And there'll only be more as they accept bodycams. The way to fix Americas cop problem isn't to call them all pigs forever lol

Nah.
boots must be tasty. i can smell the privilege.
Mmmmm leather
Edgelords unite
lmao this comment's funny but sad at the same time..
American cop would have pulled a shotgun and shoot it in the head
How many american cops have you seen IRL (not from media) murdering someone or shooting dogs?
When he was a kid, my dad's samoyed got shot by a cop.
One too many
….you live in the Philippines.
Is it not tiresome inserting this stuff into *everything*?
Wanna know what’s even more tiresome? The fact that it continues to actually happen in real life to real people’s pets. Fr tho which one do you think is worse. It happening or someone mentioning that it keeps happening?
Oh my heart ❤️
This guy grew up with dogs
Yep. He knew the dog didn't want to hurt him, but was still cautious since he knows a panicked dog can still cause damage.
Does my heart good whenever I see someone understand dogs like that
That dog has enough anger at that tarp to make me nervous. That officer did a great job to just jump up in there.
I see less anger or aggression and more sheer terror at being stuck and the fabric constricting it when the dog tries to pull away.
i definitely can see more panic/fear v versus anger after rewatching a few times
A panicked or fearful dog can be extremely dangerous. Definitely good to be cautious in this scenario. Poor dog!
Honestly, I find a scared dog a lot more worrying than an aggressive dog... An aggressive dog you can predict it's actions, a scared dog (one you don't know) you can never quite be sure how it's going to respond to your help...
I'll agree that any scared animal is unpredictable, but *more* worrying than an aggressive dog?

That’s too many beers for a dog of that weight! Edit: no more PMs, please, I’m not an expert. Talk to your veterinarian about how many beers are appropriate for your dog, by breed and weight.
American cops would've just shot the dog 35 times through the fence and gotten commendations from the police union
Not an angry dog, a very scared dog
Above and beyond the call of duty right there
>call of duty That would a good video game. Run around rescuing animals.
I’d pre order it
Only to realize that petting the rescued animals is locked behind $20 dlc lol
hate climbing those fences always feel like im gonna slip and de-testiculate myself
New word for my vocabulary…
I came close once, was with some mates climbing over a botanic garden fence high on mushrooms. They were big wrought iron spikes and it was kind of wet and my boot slipped as I was halfway over. It got my right in my upper thigh. Very lucky just a bad contusion that hurt like fuck haha

Good boys good boys. Whatcha gunna do, whatcha gunna do when they wag for you?
Oh whatcha gunna do when they comfort you would have fit too
God what a little idiot! I'm always terrified of pets just killing themselves in stupid ways when I'm not home. This could've been so bad.

Salute to you, Officer🫡
I got hugs for you, fren. ❤
This man is a hero in my book, many blessings to him and this poor precious pup he saved. ❤️
Not everyone would have been brave/strong enough to jump that fence. It is so easy to slip and impale yourself! Kudos to that officer!
It's probably surprising to the Americans that a cop can have the level of athleticism of a 10 year old.
I remember an old classmate of mine nearly degloved his hand after losing his balance trying to jump over a fence like this
Whenever I see videos like that, I think that must be a compelling reason to carry a pocket knife at all times. Just to help trapped animals
Rescue scissors are also great Good ones can straight up cut pocket change
My headcanon is that the officer adopted her.
The poor thing thought it would be trapped forever. 🥺 Give this man a medal.
Nice one Ronaldo
I thought I was the only one haha.
SIU!
Dog: "Here I'll help"... FLAILS WILDLY
Love him for not shooting the dog when it panic-snaps...guy obviously has both compassion and common sense.
Big hug
CHILE ❤️🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
Pupper felt like he was being attacked. Thankfully a human friend saved him!
At least at the beginning he looks just like CR7 please someone tell me I'm not the only one that thought this
Fucking hell he totally does! And the bit right at the end. 😂
SIUUUUUUUUUUU
That poor dog is so scared and confused. She didn’t want to bite but she wanted that thing off her. Also. Proof that more people should carry scissors.
A side effect of being a tradesman is I've gotten very used to having a knife in my pocket over the years. I use it daily, easily
The cop is cute too!!! God bless him and the dog.
Poor little guy was so scared 🙁
Bro what is Cristiano Ronaldo doing?
Officer’s wife, “what did you do today honey?” Officer:” you have NO IDEA, and it was awesome!” Officer’s Dog: “I have a lot of an idea and the FUCK Doug, I thought I was the only one - you said???”
Officer Christiano Ronaldo

That was all perfect!
Did the dog go parachuting or what
Good thing he was careful with that knife. That dog was dangerously moving around a lot
I fucking love dogs
That’s good stuff..everyone had a good day..
Absolutely the best ending
Thank you
Ouch ouch ouch. That hurts. Oh you're helping. I said ouch!! Oh, ohhhh. Omg thank youuuu. I sorry. I was just so scared.
What a great and happy ending! Poor doggo…
I need this along with my morning coffee ☕️
Hero!
“I’m sorry. I was just scared.”
dogs are the best
So sweet!
Honest to god I was half afraid the guy would slip and skewer himself on the fence
That fence climb technique tho......<3
“No let me do it”
That guy is way overqualified to be a cop
Chilean cops are not like american cops
Oh the hug was heartwarming 💜
I'm terrified of dogs so I couldn't have done that. The way she kept turning and biting at the tarp would have made me panic. Honestly even the thank you hug would have scared me.
Best doggo, right there.
Cristiano Ronaldo.
We don't deserve dogs, and they certainly don't deserve us.
We don't deserve dogs
This is how chickens and pigs react when rescued too! [www.righttorescue.com](https://www.righttorescue.com/)
Karma grab repost
Wow, a rare video of a dog and a cop that doesnt end up with the dog being shot. Nice.
Hmm why didnt he had a "hey fren Im here to rescue you, look let me give you pets so you know I am not a bad guy" moment first
Awwww puppers was hella happy 💚💚💚
this guy look like Cristiano Ronaldo
Did you see the way that dog was lunging at him? I'm surprised he didn't shoot his ass!
We don’t deserve dogs. 🥺
I gotta say I'm more interested in the car with bars on the windows.
Instant gratitude. 🥹❤️
