I've shot two hunting dogs on our property, both the same year. Both in the middle of our 2000 acres of hunting land. Yeah, the dogs don't know property lines, but the owners do. Do a better job of keeping your dogs off of land that I pay money to hunt or reimburse me my hunting lease fees. One was starving and bleeding from it's paws it had been run so much and the other was scavenging around our campers. Buried the collars and all. Was about 14 yrs ago and never had a problem again.

eta - I should clarify.. the people running the dogs left evidence they were pushing deer off our property towards theirs with the dogs the previous year. And the one that had bloody paws, you could also tell the thing hadn't eaten in about a week, it was nothing but ribs and couldn't get near it without it going cujo. Don't think it was rabid, but it was too weak to attack.

Alot of guys that run dogs on hogs out here see them as only a tool. We went on a dog/knife hog hunt last year and one of the curs kept hanging around the owner. The dog literally wouldnt hunt. At the end of the hunt we are all getting bak into our trucks and were surprised to hear a gunshot from the ditch. The owners response "Damn dog that wont hunt is just a waste of dog food" "The bitches will have another 20 pups this year anyway."

Im not saying that every dog owner would act this way but so far the dogs that ended up on our property are hog dogs.
