I'm not one to shoot dogs unless I KNOW they are bothering livestock or I encounter them and they act aggressive.
I just don't think its fair to
punish the dog for doing what dogs naturally do.
I'd love to knock the snot out the irresponsible owners though.
I feel the same way.
I have been dealing with a neighbor for years now that will not keep his dogs off my property, he even got real smart @$$ about it last year, I have been really nice about it, but after realizing I could not deal with this neighbor the warden said he would take care of it.
They have been back, during the offseason but I haven’t contacted the warden.
These kind of people have no business owning dogs.
