RE: go and get'em or try like hell to call'em back
Many places have leash laws, etc. But that does not mean that it is legal to shoot a dog simply for being on ones property. The above posted links clearly indicates that in Kansas as well. In another thread I posted multiple links from several states (for example, Texas, Maryland, and Florida) where people have been consistently charged with shooting animals on their property.Even in areas where it is illegal for dogs to harass game, people have been charged for shooting them since in some cases it is only legal for a law enforcement officer to shoot them after making an effort to catch them. Dont fool yourselves folks, if you shoot a dog just for chasing a coon on your property you might get awaywith it. Hell people get away with shooting other people all the time, so you might luck out.But more likely you will find yourself on the end of criminal chargesor at leasta civil law suit. If you don'tbelieve that, then better ask your local prosecutor aboutthe legalities of it in your own area.
