Glad things turned out ok. Good for you, and what a way to test your skills!

Honest question: As a forester, wouldn't you carry something with a little more power? A rifle or shotgun? Are you restricted on what you can and cannot carry?

You've got a career in Law Enforcement if you want one!
J/K good shoot, had to do one like that myself, not fun, but letting it chew on you is a worse option. |

My friend had an encounter with two stray cow dogs some time back - they are very dangerous
The inside of the goat barn where it happened looked insane. Good shoot |

On the assumption that you weren't inside a fence line - good shoot and great shooting!
Loose dogs are trouble, feral dogs even worse. |

For a lot of years I was a resource manager and ran 35k acres for a company. Here's my drill:
No collar, dogs acting aggresivley out in the woods coming at me = shots fired. Drew down once on two Great Danes that ran down a brushy old fire lane reduced to a mere 10 inch wide path at me once. Didn't see them until they were almost on top of me but I heard a ruckus coming. Collars and all, just out for a romp and were friendly as hell. I think they were happy to see me. Walked them back up to the road and there was a car going up and down. Sure enough, it was the owner looking for them. I know.....cool fucking story,Bro. |

Good. Now quit feeding that .40 anything except 180 gr. pills. Trust me on this one.
If you don't want to take my word for it, go back and cut open the dog. You'll see what I mean. |
|
That looks like somebody's dog that they let roam at night, they tend to pack up and kill stuff. They then show up in the morning with a little halo and a innocent look.

I ain't sayin shit, i have shot my share of vicious dogs. I don't deal well with fluffy trying to tear flesh off my body.
My ex-wife was 5-2 and all of 106 pounds, she was damn near killed by one GSD. That one got a 12 ga. slug to the chest. She needed over 200 stitches to put her back together. the OP did what he had to. |

Wow, this really makes you think when heading out into the woods.
Even in areas where bears and mountain lions might not be a normal threat, a pack of feral dogs can be a serious problem. In fact, because of negligent or careless pet owners, it could even be more of a threat the closer you are to civilization. I remember a story out of the NW where a pack of dogs was killing llamas on ranch land near homes. Good shoot, OP and thanks for sharing the story. |
|
Good shoot, glad you are OK. About the time Fluffy there sunk his teeth into ya, his 3 amigos would have been back to join in on the action.
|
|
You shoot it, you eat it... derp, derp
Why did you have to hurt that poor puppy? J/K, good shoot and good shooting. |
