I think there is a point being missed here. In general dogs are considered unclean animals in many Muslim countries, so that could partially be the basis for killing them. Cats by comparison are considered to be quite clean animals as they groom themselves a lot.

I can understand euthanasia for public safety grounds, but I'd be wary to say it wasn't an excuse to see off the western man's best friend. Take my musings with a pinch of salt though, to date I'm not really versed in Jordanian culture.
