Dogs running loose

[Sigarms]

You are implying that my brother might have been in the wrong!?!?! How dare you!!!

Yes, I'm implying your brother could be wrong, or your brother is a pusswack. If someone came onto MY property to take my dog, the police would of definately been involved. I'm sorry, someone comes onto YOUR property and takes YOUR dog without your concent???? (unless those people taking your dog are with law enforcement and they have a reason to be there).

That was what I couldn't believe, either. There's a name for that, called theft.

If it's MY dog on MY property, I wouldn't consider it theft, but kidnapping. I'd treat the person the same way if he were trying to take my wife off my property forcibly.

This is why the police would be called on my end AFTER the fact...

He didn't even know that the dog was gone until the ACO called him, so there's more to the story than I know.

Sigarms my aunt sets her bag out just before the garbage lady runs. This is how everyone does it on her route. She likes a bare bag so she can stop jump out and throw it in her ton truck. No fancy garbage trucks or cans for us poor people. If ya want dogs find away to keep them on your own property. I have two and they have a large fenced run with an electric fence wire to keep them honest.

There seems to be a LOT more to the story you don't know. If your brother didn't know his dog was missing until animal control called him, I'm not certain how you can't see at best he is a irresponsible dog owner.

Just don't understand how your dog can be missing and you don't know it until Animal Control calls you to tell you they have em. If your brother didn't know the dog was missing, not certain how he would know someone was on his property and take his dog in the first place .

Apologies, different story on my end. Some of my neighbors just leave food out with their trash right outside their home for days. It's like a calling card for ANY animal to stop by for a buffet.

Likewise, if our dogs are left outside unattended, we have a fenced in area where we can leave them out and not worry about what they want to get themselves into.

When you see dogs running, just go outside and shoot at a target you set up, or if no neighbors are in the direction of the dogs shoot towards the dogs. Hopefully the noise will scare the dogs away. It may take a couple times.

Bottle rockets work better.

One of the first things I did before I moved into my house was build a 6ft fenced in area with a 12ft gate that attached to the rear deck that has french doors that enters my living room because I knew I was going to have German Shepherds for the rest of my life.

I see a lot of people with working dogs around here and they have no place to run and play. Doesn't make any sense to me to not have a good sized area that's contained for the dog.

I bought a kennel and put in a dog door, so that he could go out if he wanted when I'm away. But my dog generally goes with me anyways, and when home alone he's laying on his bed waiting for me to get home. The kennel makes a great chicken run though.

I wanted a dog for almost 20 years before I felt that I was able to properly care for one; so I get frustrated when I see that.
