LEOs can carry their duty weapon concealed while off duty. Their badge would act as their concealed carry license. I'm not so sure about the former LEOs being able to though.

He'd probably be able to explain away a warning shot discharge a lot easier if he hadn't killed a dog, but he didn't make that choice.

I don't necessarily think that would be the case for him. It doesn't matter the circumstances, any kind of firearm discharge is going to be investigated and heavily scrutinized. If he can get them to believe that he was acting in self defense, the fact that he killed the dog won't matter. This guy is in more trouble for actually firing his weapon than he is for killing a dog, if that makes any sense.
In regards to owners, he would of been much better off not shooting the dog because now they can file suit against him.
