These posts always get me pretty steamed. The info about the beagle laying at an outfitters lodge really pisses me off. I would've been looking for the SOB who did that and kicking his behind.

I was in Illinois this fall and had 3 dogs running a rabbit under my stand. The last thing on my mind was shooting them. Later that evening I saw them at a local farmers place.

I've heard folks around here talking about shooting dogs and I just can't fathom being that much of an a**hole. You can say that they're feral and no one's pet, but it sounds like horse dirt to me. No deer is worth shooting a domestic dog.

I have a beagle and I sometimes run her during bow season, as our small game season overlaps archery season. If someone ever makes the mistake of shooting her, they're will be a hefty price to pay. Not only will I put them in the hospital, but they'll be repaying me for her.

Be men guys, and watch what you do while you're in the woods. When we're hunting, we represent hunters everywhere.
