From the article is seems the dog is fine. The drugging was so that it wouldn't bite first responders.

The ear protection is so they wouldn't hear the gunshots and change their mind.

And it seems like a really sad case. The daughter seemed to be suffering with mental illness and the mother first and then father convinced themselves they couldn't live without their family and followed suite.
