I am curious to see how people will answer this.
Do you personally view your companion as a 'family member' or property? If your dog was in danger from another human being how would you treat it? Would you use lethal force if you felt it was necessary? Where do you personally draw the line?
Police dogs as an example if killed are treated as if it was a human officer.
Yet privately owned pets are not. I know its not a perfect example, I am just using that to show the spectrum of how we view dogs.
