This stood out to me too. Normal men do not get close enough to a woman out in a residential neighborhood walking a dog alone at night. The dog was freaked and probably rightly so. You don't shoot Air Bud because you were being a creeper.

No you are allowed to walk down a street at 11 pm even if there is a woman there walking her dog. Just stop.

Yes, you are *allowed* just like you are *allowed* to stand right next to someone at an ATM. But it's still rude and suspicious behavior. Considerate people--and especially considerate men--give other people--and especially women--space when conditions permit. On a dark neighborhood street, a considerate man gives a woman walking alone space. Do you seriously not know any women?

Np here. If the walkway or sidewalk is narrow, the man has every right to be there and use the walkway or sidewalk. If he doesn't want to walk around the woman by stepping onto the street or stepping on someone's lawn to get around the woman there's not a lot she can complain about.

He has the right, but it's antisocial behavior late at night and he should be aware that he is probably going to (rightly) be perceived as a potential threat. He has the right to not care, but considerate people generally don't choose to make people uncomfortable or afraid.

Well, there's nothing to stop women from keeping their distance too. Don't put this all on men.

You and your fake compassion are tiresome. You clearly need professional help. For the sake of poor people around you (and poor dogs), seek one.

You need it. My compassion isn't fake

Op here...You making all sorts of stuff up "the path is narrow" He doesn't want to walk around the woman..are you kidding me? The only solution he has is to kill the poor woman's dog? I hope someone shoots you because you were in the way!

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.

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”. 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”. 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.

100%. What was he doing out following a woman with a gun that close at night?

This is op. Nobody has an opinion?

There are two sides to every story. I would like to hear what the shooter has to say. However, if what this woman says is true, the man should get some jail time.

Agreed.

Sure, if the story happened exactly as the woman says, then he should be punished.

OMG what if he had shot and killed the woman? Or if she had a kid that he killed because the kid screamed at him? Would you say," hey there are two sides to every story?" I think because it is a dog you people who always write "it is only a dog get rid of it" are speaking up.

Stop defending this guy! He murdered somone's pet! Come on he was not in any danger!!!

But it's very likely to be a filtered, one-sided story, and the actuality is probably way different.

Anonymous wrote:Was it a pit bull mix with retriever? Curious, bc Goldens aren't really growlers or " defensive" that would cause a passerby to feel threatened and shoot the dog.

Another take is that perhaps there was bad history between the 2 people and as revenge/payback/one-up the other the guy shot the dog.
