Good to hear shes ok  

Im sure any one of those State Troopers would have done exactly what you did, (My dad was one in PA)

 and prolly have their own "stash"

I aint got time to be flamed n put down by ppl who have their own opinion on what they like dont like or who they dont like or do like. growup if you do not like someone, growup. just dont type anything if you dont have anything nice to say. keep your whining n crybaby antics to yourself.
here in the remote villages of alaska ya their is a property line just like you folks down states or wherever you reside, but when it comes to dogs and ppl who love their dogs, you dont kust bait your leftover food with poison n purposely put it outside your door. hell i bet if i baited a 55 galllon drum of beer w poison at a house next to a other party going on id get some flak for that wouldnt I? sheesh. ppl need to growup on their own opinions. <S> dogowners greens

Then you took the time to post it here because???/

I recall when I lived in Alaska most people simply shot the dog on their property if it wasn't theirs; no questions asked, no warnings need be given. The neighbor was free to come pick em up or let em winter over until break up. No need to use a poison, waste of good anti-freeze which can be hard to come by in remote villages. Bullets are much easier, more humane, and cheaper.

This is how it is in many parts of the country. My dog roams on occasion. If she gets shot it's my fault. I know this and try to prevent it.

Is eating unknown meat left out in the open a real kid problem in your neighborhood? Or village? Do your people not feed their kids enough that they HAVE to scavenge road kill or trash in the surrounding area? 

^^^^ That was pretty funny.
