Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Florida

unlawful entry on private property by law enforcement
can deputys come on your private property(through a shut gate,in your fenced in backyard with k-9's)without having some type of search warrent? Deputys came to my front door asking for someone,when they were told no,they then asked can we come in. They were told no. Thirty seconds later I noticed lights in my backyard(they did not have permission to come in my yard)when I stepped out to see what it was I was confronted by an officer with k_9's saying,(''stay back they'll bite!'')
Is this a form of invasion of privacy?

If they were in pursuit of someone, they had the right to enter your backyard without your permission.
