Guess I'm an idiot that thinks my dogs lives are worth as much as a humans Dogs do get out, if it was chasing deer I can see it getting shot.. If it just got out and was wandering lost then WTF. I've got 40 acres, if my dog was shot on my property I'd have a tough timenotseverly hurting the dumbass who shot it. I've got a lot of money into my Siberian huskies and imported german shepherd. It'd be like losing a family member.
