I do have it happen to, The guys who hunt next to a piece I have just for still hunting turn dogs out(not on my property) all the time during black powder, and no I dont like it, I have talked to them about it but they still do it. I would never shoot a dog though. another piece(800 acres) we run our dogs on has about 50 acres almost in the middle of it that belongs to a still hunter(many run ins over the last few years) I told the guy what do you want me to do (he gets pissed even when our dogs dont take the deer on or across his property) not run the dogs here? lol But I try to call the night before now so he knows we are going to be around. I will give him credit, the dogs go across his land about 4-5 times a year(we got some non shooters lol) but he has never tried or shot one of our dogs. Maybe some other doggers can communicate with a still hunter whos land is near where you will be runnin your dogs, that you will be out there on a certain day? As a legal dog hunter thats about all you can do if your willing.
By the way his 50 acres is 49 acres of field and 1 acre of about 10 trees. The deer he hunts are coming from our piece. I know we dont own the deer but how are we the wrong ones when we run over there???? How are we screwing up his hunt? If he keeps it up I will do just what mello suggested and put a fence on that side up (about 200 yards long) and 10 feet high.
