RE: Virginia Dog Hunting
I personally do not have the guys turn out on my property, Next to it?, yes. Im not talking about the guys who ruin your hunt on purpose, But make sure thats what they are doing. I had a guy shoot one of my buddies dog cause he THOUGHT he turned out on him on purpose, He did not though. The guy never talked to any of us saying he had a problem.(NOT THAT WE WERE DOING ANYTHING WRONG) he got pissed cause we turn out on the piece he is waiting for deer to come out. thing is that it is our piece. For those who KNOW FOR A FACT that guys are running your land and you have talked to them then I dont know. whip his as*, I just hate to see a innocent dog get killed. I guess if you are 110% sure that its being done on purpose than I dont know. But if you kill a dog in my opinion your no better than he is. I know if someone kills a dog of mine on the assumption I turned out on his land than I would make it a point to try to ruin every hunt he had. Like I said Im not in your situation (everyday?) I posted before that I actually call a still hunter around a piece we hunt the night before to let him know we will be out there the next day. He can either bring his shotgun or take a chance. He seems to be happy with that.
maybe buy a deer dog of your own and run your dog across their piece all summer and fall, see how they like it????
