If you don't own a suppressor, perhaps a friend does, and can help out a bit?

I like dogs, but there's limits.

We used to have a feral dog problem. We're far enough away from a declining rural county seat to be considered a dump point rather than having to pay to surrender to the shelter in town I try to support when possible.

It sucks when you've gotta pull the trigger, but some problems don't solve themselves. If they loved their animals, they'd keep them safe and under close supervision or at least out hunting WITH you.

When you hear yotes howling at night and you try calling them in but only get strays, you know there's something wrong. :evil:

I do and it was used.

Was he referring to the dog or you?

Sorry you were forced to resort to plan B; I've been there, and it sucks.

Ummm, I had a gun drawn pointing at the dog on his front porch as to what I considered a serious but friendly social visit, the dog cornered me - he was talking about the dog. Referring to me would have meant I would have left that porch, dog alive or dead, and gone back to the house and carried on with my business. They did nothing and I carried on with my business. I will not be threatened - figured you knew that. In any case, don't really want to relive that so let's just drop it.

I've seen too many dogs on my cameras in Virginia, and the closest neighbor is 1/2 mile away. Some of these photos and videos are of chasing deer, and none of the dogs are wearing collars. As of yet, this hasn't happened while I was hunting. My feeling is that if they aren't wearing collars, they will be treated as feral and handled like a coyote.
