RE: bad dog(s)!!
"I doubt most of the reponderseven own their own land"
Last time i checked, you pay your property taxes and have owner papers, you own that land. Now my response to you is, most people with a crap load of land dont actually own it, the bank where they look out that big loan owns it. Just like ranchers, all that fuel they use, all those cows they own are a tax write off. The feeling i get from some of the responses is that there was a better way to deal with the problem. I've had problems with dogs in my area before, you either run them off, contact the owners, get the sheriff out here to do something and as a last resort, Shoot them. Ever come across a bobcat when u were hunting and have it scare the deer off? I have and u know what? Big deal, thats fine. You can Bitch and moan about it all you want but its not going to solve anything and neither will shooting the dogs. Theres always going to be someone nosing around that will catch wind of a story running around and turn that person in. Its not worth the fine or harrassment from the dog owners. You shoot atcars too when they drive by and scare off the deer?
