Shooting someone's pet dog. My God, what have we become. There are truly some sick people in this world. And they call themselves hunters, now that scares me.
In most states, and if I look I can find links again to prove it, if you see dogs chasing deer and call the DNR, they will come out and shoot the dogs themselves if they see it. Their job is to protect the wildlife and from what I've read in DNR articles, they have no qualms about killing a deer chasing dog, even if it's a pet. I guess you should be scared of what the DNR has become also then.
No one said anyone LIKED shooting dogs. I dread the thought of it. I also dread the thought of what it does to the deer. I think the life of many deer is more valuable than one dog who's owners don't really care about him.
