[QUOTE="Deepsouth, post: 1236979, member: 17608"] Dang reeler I thought you were a fisherman. Ron I agree with you about not talking to the neighbor about it. I had 3 pit bulls kill one of my dogs once. I knew who's they were but I didn't catch them at it. A.few weeks later they jumped another dog of mine. This time I caught them but didn't get a good shot so I just fired high so as not to wound them and they run home. The second dog died and the next day I went hunting. A few days later I was out by the road and the dogs owner stopped and asked if I'd seen his dogs that they were missing. I told him that was strange that I'd also lost a couple of dogs. He said probably someone stealing dogs. I said maybe so. Don't say anything to them about it just do what needs to be done.[/quote] Deepsouth: No one in the neighborhood of my farm is aware that Blue was attacked. I have been totally silent. I cannot act to protect Blue if the owner of the dog has the slightest suspicion that I have a motive for disposing of his dog. If the dog goes missing in the future. I do not want it to cross the owner’s mind that I had any reason to be the cause. Nothing I could ever say to the owner would lead him to dispose of his dog or kennel him on a permanent basis. Confronting the owner would provide one assurance: I would be his first suspect should ill ever fall upon his dog. There are times in life when a solution is a one man show. This is one of those times. No matter how much value I place on Blue, I have other lifestyle components in my world that I do not want to place in jeopardy by careless actions just to look courageous. To make a remark that you would help the owner find his dog if he goes missing would be about the same as buying him the gasoline so he can burn my hay barn.[/quote] Your exact right Ron. The neighbor that I had dog trouble with and I still get along fine. Although I did see he got a new pit bull recently. I may have to go hunting again. [/QUOTE]
