COMMERCE CITY - The moments before a dog was shot to death on Saturday were recorded by a neighbor on a cell phone.

Police say the dog was dangerous but some neighbors say officers went too far.
When Kenny Collins called police about an unfamiliar dog loose in his neighborhood, he had no idea his neighbor was dog sitting for a relative.
He had no idea it would end with the dog dead.
"I called police because I saw a dog wandering loose out front," Collins said.
Collins said for about 30 minutes, the dog just sat inside the open garage door near her bed while officers decided what to do.
"You see the dog Tased whenever you see the dog drop," Collins said.
One police officer uses his Taser twice on the dog driving her back into the garage. Then, as the dog tries to run out of the garage, an officer pulls out his gun and shoots at the dog.
"[The dog is] coming out and [the animal control officer] just noosed him," Collins said.
After the first shot, the dog is captured by the animal control officer on the catch pole. But, after it is captured, a police officer fires four more shots at Chloe, killing the dog. Collins said the video shows that the animal control officer appears upset.
