my husband and i have 5 dogs; they are kept in kennels and only allowed to roam OUR yard. this is to keep them safe from stupid drivers and to be respectful of our neighbors (i.e. pooping in their yards)it really pisses me off to go out and find crap by my grill or in my yard where i know our dogs did not go.
Stupid drivers? If a dog is in the road and gets hit by a car, it's because the driver was stupid?
It's because the dog's owner is stupid and thinks that just because they live in the country they can let the dog roam the entire neighborhood.
How many times do I hear that? "Oh, Rover was like a member of the family".. A dog has no more sense than a 3 year old child. Would you let a 3 year old run around the neighborhood unsupervised?
I'm sorry, I wanted to make sure you knew I wasn't calling you the idiot. I'm talking about the dog owners that don't properly care for the dog they claim to love.
If they cared, they'd keep the dog with them at all times if it's not on a leash or behind a proper fence.
The animal cannot detect that he / she is doing anything wrong by roaming. It's their nature. If you've killed 9-dogs, then you must get your thrills by shooting them. Pretty sad mentality that you have there... Apparently, you are a pretty calloused person. Why couldn't you just have thrown rocks at them to scare them away, instead of taking their lives... Sadist!
It is amazing you give the total count of the dogs you killed. But I notice you don't give your name. What are you afraid of?? Hiding behind your gun?? You are a spineless joke for a man. Anyone knows any animal unless they are rabid will run from a loud noise. I have shot a gun in the air many a time to get animals to run off my property,.. And they run like heck. You are all about killing. Trigger happy sicko!!
I agree that non agressive dogs should be allowed to roam and be dogs. Ours roamed near home and still were poisoned by some spineless individual. We all know that there are hateful people in Lamar County and by now, a lot of people know that a dog that was shot in that same area was left for dead. Someone out there has mad hunting skills for sure so bambi is safe. I do wish a safe return of your dog. We will always mourn the loss of ours and we were able to know the reason behind it.
No, me being a 63 year old black woman, I have never had a servant. I have always been the server. I was talking about the fact of how good they are with wheelchair patients and sick kids. But you can feel however you wish.
Here's hoping Brody is located safe and sound, Ms. Gaff.
Sorry for some of the ugly comments on here. Those folks are everywhere, not just Lamar county....
Ugly is standing over dying livestock with the throats torn out. Ugly is writing a big check to the vet to put said livestock out of its misery. Come out and listen the screams of pain and suffering, then tell me everything you know about everything.
Ugly is having to do it again and again. Ugly is when people let their "pets" roam freely destroying others property. "Dogs being dogs" after all.
When some of you bright lights have to do some of this, THEN get back to me about your dogs! Until then, you don't have the faintest idea what is really happening out here in the "country".
...and yes, I will continue to blast your roaming pets when they come onto my property. Love your pet? Keep it home!
Please don't forget to take you meds today, Anonymous.
Life is too short to be so angry at a dog.
I seriously doubt every dog that gets lost is out to terrorize your livestock.
THANK YOU!!! I COULDNT HAVE SAID IT BETTER...THATS ALL THAT MATTERS...AS ANYBODY CAN SEE HE HAS A LOVING FAMILY WAITING ON HIS RETURN..IT SEEMS HE IS NOT JUST A DOG..BUT PART OF THE FAMILY!!!
A pet dog by itself will not attach livestock. A pack of dogs is a different story. If the guy that shot the 9 dogs was really having livestock attacked and killed by dogs he should have reported it the the sheriff department. I have not read or heard of any problems with wild dogs in the county. He's a spammer and probably doesn't even know how to shoot a gun.
Someone I know had their dog killed by a pack of dogs. Best to teach your "country" dogs to stay on your property. I love dogs and don't want to see any killed.
The writer of 17 and 17.1 is a sorry individual. I hope you lose an animal that you love but I hope the animal goes to a home that is happier for the dog.
Someone shot my daughters tiny min pin puppy yesterday. I am wondering if that sick sob that says he killed 9 dogs did it. Hide your name if you want to but you can still be tracked down and we can find out who you are. That's how dumb and stupid you are.
I love all animals and wish that everyone else did. But this is the country and if you chose to let your dog run free then you should probably expect something bad to happen to it. I have pugs dogs and they are like my babies. My husband and I put a fence around our house (not the whole 5 acres that we call a yard) but we did it to protect our doggies from other peoples roaming dogs. If you love your animal then try to protect it. Please don't shoot a dog unless you see it attacking livestock because dogs don't know property lines and they don't know when they are in someone else's yard. I have had to wrestle a pit bull dog when it came in my yard because my dogs were in a pen and could not chase him off luckily for me the dog was a sweet dog. But I let the owner of the pit bull know in no uncertain terms that if his dogs came on my property again he would be shot. The dogs came up missing that day so he thinks that I shot them but the last time I saw them was when they were walking up the road past my house.

Sure nuff, and I'll let my gun be a gun.
Killed 9 of these free roamers on my property thus far. One just a week before last.
So let them roam, I got plenty of ammo.

Just take it back, say you found it, say it appeared in your yard say anything...but take the dog home. Please....
You will feel good and you will be blessed.
Brody cannot tell you...but he wants to go home now.
