Why cant people...

Keep their damn dogs in their yard. Today a yellow Lab from down the road came into my yard attacked my Chihuahua. I was able to run inside, grab my 12ga, and killed the lab, but not before it had killed my dog, that was doing nothing more then laying out in the sun. Now two dogs are dead because some idiots don't know how to chain up their dogs or at least keep then from getting off their property.

Sorry to hear about your pup.  That really sucks.

Im really sorry to hear that. I own 3 labs (2 Black, 1 Yellow) and I've honestly have never heard anything about them being violent. It's never fun to lose a pup.

No joke larry, i just started a thread to because I keep getting chased and attacked by dogs running wild, and i'm not even on the peoples property. A damm Rottweiler chased me while I was riding my bike in the street earlier this week!

[Larry]

Thanks guys. Whats really messed up is I called animal control twice this week on that same dog because it kept coming into my yard trying to get into my chicken coop and they didn't do anything about it. I own four dogs a lab/pit mix that I keep on a runner a beagle and two chihuahuas. My property isn't fenced in but Iv never had and trouble keeping my dogs from running the streets. There are three more of my neighbors dogs that I see every day running around and they have a fence. From now on screw animal control if a dog comes into my yard its getting shot, because god forbid this happens again and my little sister or myself is the next one to get attacked.

hmm, I just called the police station to ask about my options for next time a dog chases me, they told me to call animal control. It sux that  you say they won't do anything about it though. I think of carrying a bat or some sort of weapon but it kinda awkward riding a bike with a bat in hand, but I really don't want to get into any trouble with the law either...

Mace, bb gun, or if you're old enough a hand gun. If a dog is chasing or charging you and you are in fear of your own safety then do what you have to do.

Wife is always puttering about on a moped taking pictures, and gets chased a LOT--she has a night-stick/flashlight/stun-gun contraption, seems to do the trick. She's afraid it will kill a small dog, but that particular scenario hasn't arrived yet

[BowHTR]

This will do the trick. guaranteed to stop any size dog with the first hit.

If you know the owners you can file a suit. You can only get the value of the dog. They don't care if you consider it a family member or not.

Sorry to hear about your dog.

I have told my neighbors in the past I won't punish your dog just the owner. Dogs are a responsibility  just like everything else. If you cannot look out for the dogs vested intrests then you should not have  one. Larry sorry for your dog.

  Larry.  You are getting better at this 

[zack1234]

I have a Very big German Shepard, vet even says he is big, I have sign up saying do not enter dog!
I have a chain wrapped around six foot high gate, have a guess what door to door salesman did, i came out to dog barking over a salesman who had knocked himself out trying to escape.
Dogs are daft people are stupid

Dedalos I'm not joking this really happened.

Sorry to hear about your dog.

She was the runt of a litter and we decided to keep her, so we didn't pay anything for her, but anyways suing them wont bring my dog back.
