Attacking the hunting hound in Uman (I just wanted to see the animations!), the redoran guard starts shooting the hound instead of getting mad at me or at least be impartial.

This behaviour could be tied to the engine itself, it's quite possible that it can't be changed.

edit: just tested the same thing on the hound at the Pryai bridge outpost, the behaviour of the guard is the same as the one in Uman
