Minnesota Deputy Caught on Tape Brutally Beating His K-9 Partner

Boone

A Minnesota sheriff’s deputy is facing criminal charges after surveillance video caught the man senselessly beating his K-9 partner, Boone.

Brett Arthur Berry, an 18-year veteran of the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office, was at the Black Bear Casino in Carlton, Minnesota for a K-9 training and certification event with his four-legged partner.

At some point during the training event, Deputy Berry took Boone outside, picked the dog up by his neck, and slammed him into the ground, video (below) showed.

After being slammed into the ground, Boone scurried back toward the casino, but became caught between two sliding doors. That’s when Berry was videotaped smacking the defenseless animal multiple times.

Local police were called to the casino around 3am, where they viewed the disturbing video surveillance tape and reported their findings to Berry’s police department.

The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office removed Deputy Berry from the training event and placed him on administrative leave.

Boone was removed from Berry’s care and taken to a veterinarian. After examination, he was found to be suffering no injuries.

Now, Berry is facing two misdemeanor charges, one for animal cruelty and one for assaulting a public safety dog. If convicted, he faces 90 days in jail and $1,000 fine for each offense.

Warning! The surveillance video below may be disturbing to some viewers.

UPDATE! What happened to Deputy Berry? Where is Boone today? CLICK HERE.

    Does anybody know the rest of the story? Why was he asked to leave in the first place? Though maybe not quite like this but in some research I have read that you need to be the alfa and if the dog is resisting you grab them at the neck and put them on the ground. And he was slapping the dog with an open hand not beating with his closed fist. I think there is more to this than we know yet.

      please educate yourself on the newest studies (science based studies, not the faulty observational studies all this alpha nonsense is based on) that the idea of having to be alpha is outdated, false and detrimental to the training of dogs.

    This is beyond awful! It’s inhumane, it’s barbaric, it’s sadistic and he should be charged for striking an officer of the law! He is there to protect his partner.

    “These crimes are further troubling as studies have shown that in a large number of animal cruelty cases, the violence displayed is an indicator of other family violence issues such as domestic violence, child abuse or elder abuse.” Ill-treating a pet in a way that one knows would cause him/her to suffer needlessly should receive the same punishment as if they were harming a human child.

    Do we really need humans like this living among us? Any human that is capable of such heinous acts should not be allowed to live. They are not a positive, productive member of society and there is no rehabilitating a person of this nature. They are useless to the human race.

    Please help us in getting the laws changed, our pets are family members and should be protected under child laws. Support, like, share. We must be their voice. facebook.com/RuxtinsLaw

    I have been saving all of these petitions for the past several months. Since we started doing research for Ruxtin’s Law. We will be following up on them in the coming year. We don’t care how long it takes, we will find these p.o.s. humans and we will do everything in our power to make sure that they and everyone else does not forget about what they’ve done.

    We are so sick of seeing animal abuse and neglect throughout the world. NO excuse is good enough any longer. We no longer live in a world where we have to eat, torture, abuse and neglect animals.

Makes me even more angry when they try and justify it, and say the dog was in training, and say the dog wasn’t hurt. Admit it……..this is wrong on so many levels! Punishment needs to be given out, he is suppose to know better.

    This “man” and I used the term loosely because a real man would not do that! But he should be charged with assault on a police officer because that’s what a K9 dog is, should lose his job and face MORE than 90 days and a fine. That dog would have most likely risk his own life for that monster and his treatment of him was just horrible and cruel. How could that creep’s word be trusted concerning ANYTHING, if he had to testify in a court case as most officers must do at some point, I wouldn’t believe anything he said. Would like to see him backed into a corner while someone beat the crap out of him! What a embarrassment and disgrace he is, as a police officer and a human being! Wonder what lie he would have spun if that dog had defended himself and bite him, cause he darn sure deserved it!!! No sense in anyone doing that to any animal! This story just hurts the heart and makes you ill and I pray he is punished and glad he was caught. Who knows how much abuse that poor dog has endured with that creep! Am praying he is punished 10 times over!

    This man needs anger management evaluation and treatment big time – does he have a history of beating his wife or kids? What could this dog possibly have done to enrage him so badly? If he was on his best behavior because he was at a training seminar, imagine what that dog endured before this came to light. How long did this maniac have this dog in his “care”??? Why was he asked to leave just before this incident? I can’t believe his own police department wasn’t aware of his short-fuse and abusive tendencies. Why in the world would they place a dog in his care – he can’t control himself, much less a defenseless animal.

  66. What a total wanker. I wish the dog had let him down when they were on patrol and he got the shit kicked out of him by some criminals – see how he felt. What he did is truly disgusting – this is an animal who looks up to him for guidance and protection. I wish i could slam him onto the floor.

Since they say that a k-9 is a police officer, then this cowardly slime attacked a police officer, harmed a police officer, and should be charged as such. He needs State charges filed against him. If his department let’s him get away with this, they are just as guilty. This beautiful innocent dog needs to be in a safe, loving home with a handler that is not a psychopath.

    Although Berrys K-9 may have helped you guys working warrants, I hope your department has the stamina to do more than make him sit home with pay. If a turd hurts a K9, they can sometimes be charged with assaulting an officer and more. When an officer brutalizes a commissioned K-9, with video documentation to boot, I would expect that officer to be charged for the crime. That video made me cringe. Those dogs are loyal till the end as our dogs in Afghanistan were. I have never ever heard of or witnessed a soldier/ handler doing what your officer did to that K9, and Those K9’s fought IED’s and AK 47’s all day and all night. I’m sorry Brett Berry has disgraced your agency,I hope your sheriff and DA have the balls to prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law.If that doesnt happen I hope a concerned voter/ citizen will get their own grand jury indictment on their own. Totally uncalled for.. be safe, and IM sorry you have to work along side of a true K9 abuser disgrace of a human in general.

    If a member of the public were to attack a police K9 like this they would be charged with assaulting an officer (a felony in the US?) and probably face a much heavier sentence. That is, if they weren’t shot by another officer first. This piece of shit cop should be terminated immediately, all other pets removed from his home, and children removed and placed with children’s aid. He probably beats his wife too.

    Bastard needs to be fired. Dog probably has trust issues. This whole thing will go south if officer jerk plea bargains out.

  89. the man is obviously troubled and needs help. Not to excuse what he did, but the abused will abuse. I’m glad the pup is ok and hopefully is out of the line of ‘duty’

    At the very least this deputy should be fired. This dog would lay down his life for him even after the beating. This man should never be allowed to work with or own a dog. shameful, heart break in to watch.

    This officer was beating this dog while enjoying the privilege of a conference to further his training. He not only slammed the dog but continued to pursue the dog with full determination. The poor dog NEVER attacked back but humbled its defenseless self. The officer should lose his job, pay full penalty under the law, and be responsible to reimburse his government for wasted money for training. A disgrace to his badge.

    Animal abuse is a FELONY now. Man needs to be prosecuted just like everyone else who does this type of thing.

    Wow. The pain and abuse you inflected upon that living being who trusted you, was trained by you, and loved you…………you broke that poor animal’s heart, you POS. That life trusted you to take care of it and love it and care for it. If you didn’t want to do that, you didn’t have to. YOU DIDN’T HAVE TO! I HOPE YOU ROT IN HELL. There’s no excuse or justification. That was just horrible. You have a black heart, no soul, and deserve to rot in hell. Which, if there’s any justice………..you will.

    THAT’S ALL? That’s all he gets! He asulted an Officer! If a civillian did that you would have put him away for years and years! What kind of ass backwards state are you running? That dog should be dissmissed from service and given to a family that will love him and hopefully after years and years of love be able to undo what this criminal has done. He has no business being a police officer! Disgusting!

    I agree with Kim. He may not have physical injuries, but he might not be fit to be a police dog again. He could have fear issues of people in uniform or of people in general. Someone needs to be testing these cops for anger management issues.

    The dog has no physical injuries but mentally he will have Fire this cop and make sure he never is allowed to own an animal again Absolute disgrace. I bet it isn’t the first time like all abusers .

  99. Charge the “cop” – and I use that term loosely, with assault & battery on a police officer.

    And then fire his butt. He is not worthy to be an officer of the law

    You are lucky. I lost my Westie a couple of months ago. I now have part Boston Tertier and a Chiwawa. She is a sweet animal but I miss my Westie terribly.
    I like my new dog but it is just not the same and it never will be.
    I guess I got this little dog too early. I won’t give her up though. She is mine. She makes me smile. It would help if her hair did malt make me itch so bad. Being allergic to her hair does not help. The doctor says to get rid of her. She is my baby. I take an allergy pill every day. It doesn’t work. But that is life. Lol I hope it does soon.

  103. This officer should not have a job much less a K-9 partner.

    He needs to be fired. Anyone with such anger can’t serve the public. Get mental help and take notes.
