86. The fact that you'd advocate killing a dog just because it threatened.
Edited on Tue Dec-12-06 09:25 PM by xultar
Nor do I like the fact that you'd just go get a gun and shoot a dog.
I wouldn't want you any where near a gun.

There are so many situations and reasons and you can't wholesale say killing a dog is warranted because it threatened.

I've seen the look from a dog. But I wouldn't just SHOOT. If you don't carry your gun in your coat by the time you get to your house and find the damned thing it would be too late. You should get a better plan to handle the situation instead of just shooting the dog. I'd call the authorities and start proceedings to judge the owners fitness to own such a dog and have it taken to a facility where it could a Live or be put down as instructed by a judge in the matter.

So many issues with animals have more to do with the owners than the dogs. If you'd learn that and understand then you'd understand that just saying shoot the dog is ignorant. Haven't we grown past the shooter up bullshit? There are processes to handle it.

I can't even say if a dog bit my child that I'd just walk over to the owners house and shoot the dog. That's ignorant.

I might be confusing you with other nuts in this thread. But before a dog is put down things have to be investigated.

In this case. The parents were starving the dog and they had to be high not to hear the baby. I don't think this warrants putting the dog down.
