Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
Policies vary depending on the department, but generally:
1. If someone is there that the owner would like to take custody of the animal, they can.
2. If no one is close at hand that the owner will allow to take the animal, the animal will be collected by whatever animal control organization is in the area. Some jurisdictions this is operated by the government, in other areas it is contracted out to another organization. Once the owner posts a bond, he or she can then go collect his or her animal.

If you lie to a law enforcement officer about your age, you could be charged with providing false information to the officer. (The exact name of the crime varies from state to state.) Sounds like you took a minor issue and made it into a crime due to your lack of honesty.

Identifying yourself as a police officer is a felony in most/all states. Saying you rode with a police officer breaks no laws that I am aware of. Contact an attorney if you are really concerned about this one.

Dealing with a violent person is a fluid and dynamic sitation. There is no easy, one-size-fits-all answer. Generally speaking, a police officer is authorized to use any force, up to and including deadly force, when he or she believes it is reasonably necessary to stop an armed person who poses an imminent threat to the lives of others. That may include shooting the violent criminal.

Committing crimes like theft and DUI are serious, and will be seen as such by an employing agency. Your best bet is to be completely honest (any lies will get you immediately barred from employment.) A department will generally take into consideration the circumstances surrounding the crimes such as how long ago did it happen (were you a 13 year old when you stole from someone as opposed to having done it last week.)
Arrested Development fan, I assume? Funny show.

If you know where she is, go get her. If another adult is interfering with the custody of your child, that could be a crime & feel free to call the local law enforcement agency.
If she refuses to come home and you don't know where she is, you can report her as a runaway.
