Happens all the time here in Ohio. Dogs out on the loose during hunting season, especially if they are chasing deer, usually don't live too long. I have never personally shot one, but have had a few occasions when dogs come by my stand. Doesn't bother me any, it's someones pet that has gotten loose, and is just doing what dogs do. There are several guys I know that will shoot them on sight ( bow or gun season) if they see them while in the stand.
