I'm not to comfortable with what happened, but don't know if the dogs were wearing collars, or menaced the hunters. It wasn't one dog, they'd sort of formed a pack at that point. Whether they did or didn't, I'm also not too comfortable with dog owners who open up their door and let the dogs run off. It may be different in the country, wide open spaces and all that. I've cared too much for the dogs I've had to let them run off unchecked. And I'd certainly have more respect and concern for the dogs, and for the hunters, to let them interfere and endanger themselves during hunting season.
