If someone shot my 2 dogs at my feet I’d likely be talking to my attorney right now. I’m never not armed and I’ve never had to draw it on a human but that guy likely would’ve changed all that. No, more likely we'd be reading your obituary. If the guy just shot your dogs, he'd have the drop on you. If you reached for your gun you'd be a dead man. That's the brutal truth. Tom Very true but I’m fast, just ask my wife. 😁 Like Speedy Gonzales saying, "It wont hurt, did it? " Hey don't shoot my dog, I paid $500 for him....
Ahh yeah okay, he's only chasing pregnant $2500 cows on icy ground.....
Get your fuuckin' dog outta here you stupid 'tard. What if someone's dog is chasing your $2500 cat? If you have a 2500 dollar cat running loose, there is proof you have a screw loose.

The cat is out of the bag now, unfortunately. Cuzz a SSS would likely have been the best solution.

Nasty ass feral cats will pick fights with dogs and plenty of cats that come home at night act feral during the day.And my drahthaar will oblige them every time. People let their cats run all over hell because it's just a cat what can it hurt.

Get your fuuckin' dog outta here you stupid 'tard. What if someone's dog is chasing your $2500 cat? LOL! There's no such thing as a $2500 cat. But, if there were, I think I'd keep it on my own property if I cared about it much. Last GF and I had 2 cats. If it wasn't for the minor imperfections they had that made them useless as show cats - they would have been $3000 kittens. Each. We got Jake and Stella for free - given the breeder was family to the GF. But we had to sign a lot of documentation around cloning etc.

Solution- everyone keeps pets on their own property. Simple. Yup. Then there'd be no problem.

Her godmother was the "face" of the ordeal. She attended shows and did sales etc. Her godfather was the brains. He had multiple masters degrees in biology etc and used to do a lot of research for the state on various things. He did all the genetics and breeding decisions. Their house was set up to do all of this. Nice people and it was their "thing". She sells kittens all over the world - won tons of ribbons etc. Jim passed away a few years ago - a lot of "cat people" showed up and they are different. Jake and Stella are/where pets to us, many others with the show cats were treated them like you would a show car. Only comes out for the show and no attachment to them otherwise. Was really weird and uncomfortable.

Sounds like the guy is off more than a little bit. Cat folks are generally a bit different. My only neighbor has a boat load of cats...I've never seen him in daylight and he's never come to the door when I've knocked.
I hate to shoot a dog, but if one gets in a pasture it's dead. Now it'd have to slip through 7,000+ volts to get in there so it doesn't happen often. Once in, it only takes a minute to kill thousands of dollars worth of stock. ...but I think it's a bit different than what happened here.

Thousands of $$. Couple weeks later he repeated the trick. More $$$ Dog got shot.......by his owner. Said he couldn't afford to keep that dog in pussy.

Have update: Mom was a little confused[God love her], he was NOT a convicted felon. He was charged with three felonies[along with multiple misdemeanors]. Out on bail of $50K. Upon his release, the judge basically added a restraint to both he and my stepfather to keep their distance from one another[not sure how that would work]. He[dog killer] is a retired Mechanical engineering professor from Virginia Tech. Tells me all I needed to know.....
Apologies for the mis-information concerning prior felonies.

Apologies for the mis-information concerning prior felonies. Oh...I may be missing something here, how is a retired teacher an obvious problem. In point of fact I do not recall too many retired teachers feeling the need to confront neighbours with firearms either. This is very one sided, do you have a link to a more complete story?

The 'teaching profession' here has become filled with 100% liberal snowflakes, especially at the higher ed level. I deal with these people daily[at VT] 9 out of 10 are educated idiots while all along assuring themselves that they are mentally superior in all facets of life to the poor masses.

I live on a farm and keep semi-feral cats to chase mice (otherwise we'd be covered up in mice). My nearest neighbor is miles away but on many occasions dogs have shown up here on their own or jumped out of someone's pickup who stopped here. They pee on everything they see and chase the cats ---- Annoying, but I'd never consider shooting one.
If I had livestock, however, it would be different. I've seen horses run thru fences while being chased by dogs --- sometimes Labs. One of my neighbors shotgunned 2 dogs (belonging to another neighbor) that were chasing his cows. The kids were upset, but nobody said a word about it. I don't keep my cats on my property, but if they were to get to a neighbors and start killing birds, I'd expect never to see them again.

Ok, I get that you have a bias toward educators but I believe you pointed out that he owned at least one firearm and lives out of town, so I for one wouldn't mind some info from another source. Would your opinion be shared by your step-father by any chance?

Thanks for the update Raeford! What a sucky situation, I hope the dog killer does some hard time.
