You guys are clearly missing the point of his thread. He said it was a neighbors dogs that were running loose on his personal property. It is not some random guy, he has contacted them and asked them to cage the dogs multiple times. They refuse to cage them. This is not an accidental escape on the dogs part this is intentional. And as another poster stated the owners can only blame themselves when fido doesnt come home. And for the record it wouldnt hurt my feelings at all to shoot a nuisance animal on my property. Think of it like a coyote in a sense the dogs are the same as a coyote. Like UncleNorby said Shoot Shovel Shut Up. It is hard to prove you shot the dog when you cant find the bodies.
