I' ve got two neighbors that have several dogs that run freely! I was changing the film on one of my game cam' s this summer, turned around and was surprised by two dogs. They were trotting along a deer trail that lead right by the cam tree and they were obviously surprised by me. They stopped a mere ten yards from me and one of them started barking and growling at me. I honestly think he meant it too!! I didn' t have a weapon or they both would have died. I simply stood there and calmly explained to each of them that this was not THEIR property and if I ever saw them here again, they could rest assured that I would have my 22 and it would be the end for them. They slowly retreated and I haven' t seen those two back. But, I' ve seen several other dogs running loose. Everytime I see them, they have been running something (deer I suspect)! It really sucks that some dog owners do not have the descentcy to keep their pets from running all over the country side. I have spoken with local law enforcement and they told me to shoot them the next time I saw them, which I fully intend on doing!!!
