Kern County Sheriff Donny Youngblood says he disciplined the deputies but wouldn’t say how because of the Peace Officer’s Bill of Rights.

Caught On Camera: California Animal Control Officer In The Hot Seat For Dragging Dog
Caught on camera and for all the wrong reasons. Now, stay with me here because I’ve confirmed a lot of information today.
Kern County, California. The video is now making the rounds. Here’s the info. That’s Kern County Animal Control Officer Tipton—yes, that name is confirmed—caught on camera reportedly beating and dragging the 2-year-old, 60-pound mixed breed dog. Officer Tipton went out on a call for a stray and, at one point, tranquilized the dog. That’s when you see him reportedly dragging her back to the truck. The Kern County Animal Services Director told me there’s definitely no reason to do what the ACO is seen doing. The vet later examined the dog, and thankfully, no injuries were found. They also scanned the dog for a chip, but no luck. She was wearing a collar, but the director tells me they don’t expect anyone to reclaim her. Instead, he hopes a 501(c)(3) rescue steps in, and there’s already been some interest.
As for Officer Tipton, he is off until Monday. When he returns, the 4-year veteran will be questioned. After that interview, a decision will be made about his next steps. Once a decision is made, the Animal Services Commission will hear any appeals. An update will be provided early next week.
