I understand your emotions, but the dog was on another mans property. Owners with the feels should keep their pets in check.
ETA: I don't want some of you to get PMS over this or take it the wrong way, so I will clarify. Without knowing the mans past experience with dogs roaming his property and their actions, or current events with dogs roaming his property and their actions, the responsibility lies with the irresponsible pet owner which gives other responsible pet owners a bad name. If the dog was just running across another mans yard, with no livestock, no kids, no attacks, and is being non-threatening, then I certainly don't condone just shooting a dog. |

Quoted:
That had been shot by some asshole for running through his yard. The dog was standing on their porch coughing up blood everywhere. It looked like a yellow lab and had obviously been hit in the lung. I have always said that someone doing something like that to my dogs might be my ticket to jail. After seeing that pic, I pray no one hurts my dogs because I would be gone. Control your pets and then you only have to worry about cops shooting them. |

That's very fucked up and sad for the dog owner. My dog will never be shot because it is always on a leash or fenced in. Funny how that works. |

I have found that keeping control of my dog keeps them from getting shot.
I won't shoot dogs on my land on sight, but if they don't have a collar and act aggressive they get shot. If you care about your dogs keep them in your yard, especially if you live outside of town. |

Was the dog threatening someone? I mean shit guys, you're going to shoot a dog just because it's on your property? That's just crazy to me. I'll probably (and I have before) taken a look at it's tag and seen if there's a number on there.

The only animals that would get shot on my property are the follows: If it is acting aggressively towards my family or myself. If it is rabid/foaming at the mouth If it is a deer or other animal that I hunt. |

Has he had dogs eating or harassing his pets or livestock in his property before? While I would have also chosen to not shoot the dog if it were acting peacefully or playfully, I don't know the circumstances which led to this shooting. One thing is for sure, the dog was not where it belonged. |

A little girl accidentally let the dog out. It wasn't a reoccurring thing. The dog wasn't shitting, eating chickens, etc. I might have an unusual attachment to my dogs, but some of you have an unusual attachment to your land. If the dog had been doing anything out of the way, I wouldn't have posted about it or gotten so pissed. I should have made that more clear though.

I believe we are literally the only house on the street with a fenced backyard. Our doberman stays back there all the time unless I'm mowing the grass. There are 2 labs in each of the houses on the sides of us that are constantly in my yard. I've had one come charging into my yard at night barking and scare the shit out of me. It might have gotten shot if I would have been armed taking the trash out. The cocker spaniel across the street shits in my yard and barks at me and the kids, in my yard. Just tonight I had my hand on my pistol telling it to go home. I don't care if it barks from the road, but get out of my yard. |

If the dog wasn't harming people or property, try and gather the dog and check it's collar and tags in the hope of returning the dog and scolding the owner. It was a dick move to shoot the dog. Ultimately, the death of the dog is the owners fault. But it seems that shooting the dog might have been unnecessary. It doesn't mean that I'd kill my neighbor. But he had better never set foot on my land or touch my property. |

I"m not shooting a dog simply because its on my property, and those who condone that are fucking psychos. I will shoot a dog if its repeatedly on my land and shows aggression towards my animals or family.
Of course, most mouth breathers can't grasp the difference in the two scenarios because they want to get a boner of off killing a kids dog. |

The dog should have been kept on a leash or not left to wander someone else's property. With that being said, this is the age of the internet and social media. Don't be surprised when owner contacts the news or posts your name and address on Facebook saying that you're a fucking gun nut that likes to shoot other people's pets. Respect is a two way street.

Paging TheRedGoat.
What did he say? His dad learned to use 22lr to shot dogs that harassed his cattle. That way the dog would go back home to die, the owners couldn't lie to their kids about what happened to Fido, and the owners learned to control their pet. Bottom line: Only a miserable asshole shots a dog for running through his land. You can be in the right legally and still be a fucking jackoff. And no dog is worth going to jail over. |
