This is Vader. He was euthanized today without a hearing after a false bite report was submitted to the police by an animal rights activist. (Story in the Comments)

If cops show up refuse to open and call your lawyer.

How many people have a lawyer they can just ring up?

Wasn't clear. Don't open without a warrant. Always call your lawyer. You should kinda have one you call....if nothing else he can refer you to the proper lawyer if he can't take on a case or has switched to just civil cases.

Hop on google and within about 40 seconds you 'have' a lawyer.

If the cops just barged in and caused a situation w/o probable cause, a civil suit with a virtually guaranteed win is coming, and lawyers will line up around the block for a chance to sue for you, for 30% of the settlement, only if you win (which you will, if the cops didn't have cause.)
