Well Big Country Kudos for claiming to being perfect. Good luck with that. How does it feel to be the only person in the world who has never made a mistake?

Unlike you, I have felt in several instances including the very first post where it has been done or suggested to just shoot a dog the very first time they spoil your hunt or see them. Some have tried to justify it by stating expenditures on this hobby / sport. One that apearently is SO FREAKING important that people are willing to take a domestic animals life for. Ok, your call, but my message has stayed consistant throughout.

Seek alternatives. If you have, then good for you, that is all I ask. What you do next is on your concience not mine.

For the record, I am neither lazy nor worthless. I am however human and honest enough to admit and accept that mistakes happen.

You obviously have had a bad experience and you seem to think that everyone automatically would try to BS you based on the experience you had with a few people. That goes back to that responsibilty thing. If my dog got loose once, I would tell you that. If he got loose 13 times I would tell you that.

I guess I really don't understand what is wrong with suggesting that people seek alternative methods past the obvious of contacting the "BS'ing" owners. Are we all not hunters here in search of quality time in the field and meat in our freezers?

Well it is 3am my time and I figure I have wasted way more time on this then I ever should have. Good night all, and safe hunting to you.
