[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe an overreaction but DH was attacked by a leached golden in my neighborhood. The owner said she was aware he was aggressive but he pulled away from the leash suddenly and took a big bite out of DH before she could pull him back. I really believe there is another side to this story.[/quote]

I agree this story is really weird, but it strikes me that everyone is insisting that this was “unprovoked” but even the dog owner admits the dog “growled”. [b]Dog owners often seem to minimize their dog’s behavior, so I would absolutely not be surprised if this was a lot more than a “growl”.[/b] Either way, dude obviously shouldn’t have shot the dog. Gun nuts who bring guns everywhere and then act like it wasn’t their fault a gun was involved are just idiots.  Dangerous idiots. [/quote]
But even if this were true and the dog was lunging and trying to attack, the dog was on a leash! Move away, it can't get to you. Why do gun owners now think that they have the right to the exact square foot of sidewalk that they want to be on, no matter what else is going on? There is no excuse, none, to shoot a dog on a leash unless the owner has dropped the leash and it's in active pursuit. Even then there's very unlikely a reason, but I'm just allowing for the remote possibility.[/quote]
