That is if you're not comfortable shooting a dog.
We've had to eliminate problem dogs in the past, Clark Co. In, we've also relocated a few.
I was once about 3 seconds from putting down a charging St. Bernard, had already unloaded and stored my shells in my fanny pouch.
Had the dog showed 3 seconds sooner...
As it turned out he barrel rolled at my feet begging for a belly rub, gave him to a friend and his family enjoyed a great dog for several years.
This is a desired ending I agree one that is good for the dog and hunter. 2 of the dogs generally run off when they see you,the biggest pit bull tends to look you down then as a pattern takes off to catch the others. I simply keep my eye on him until he leaves the property,but I understand a woman being concerned with such a powerful dog hanging around or being surprised by it's sudden appearence. I am hoping that the visit from the Conservation Officer will bring a good result in this whole matter and a new relationship can be brought about by the warning given them. Some people get even when you press them time and time again this is not desired by any of us.We all have dogs and cats but none of them are allowed off the property or to run free not even the cats. Thanks for talking this over with me everyone it has helped curve my frustrations and some anger over the whole situation. Good Hunting be to all as we approach the peak time of our season.
