This is a wonderful post & I love this one each and every time it comes around.
For dos owners, Control your pets! A dog that dosn't repeatedly wander onto MY property while chaseing deer has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to worry about.

I love dogs although I don't own one. I had a problem with a neighbors dog this season. Offense one, I had a discussion with the owner who assured me the problem would end. Second offense I called the animal control officer. Because he dragged his feet getting to my property the dog was gone and he said he couldn't do anything. He was nice enough to go to the owner with me and we were assured that the dog wouldn't return. I made my intension known at that point if that mut returned to my property it would not return to the owners. This stired up both the owner and animal control but I think the owner got the point as the dog hasn't returned.

I have very little time to hunt and spend quite a bit of money to have some lazy slob who dosn't care to control his pet ruin my time out on MY PROPERTY!
Bottom line TAKE CARE OF YOUR DOG BECAUSE IF IT BECOMES AN ISSUE I WILL![:@]
