Message: <blockquote data-quote="wjschmaltz" data-source="post: 350564" data-attributes="member: 6150">I don't want anything banned.  I would, however, like to be protected by law (and most importantly the public eye) if an aggressive and unleashed dog comes onto my property or passes me on the street or trail and I decide to mitigate the problem. I would also like the right to be able to pick up dog shit on trails or public places and shove it in someone's mouth before my kids play or step in it when I see someone let their dog crap everywhere without picking it up.  I've never seen a leash law or problem enforced. Animal control told me that if I caught my neighbor's pit bull in my yard to call him and they'll take it to the pound and give the owner a warning when it's picked up.  What the shit. Make it the well known norm that this shit is unacceptable with severe punishment. Financial or otherwise. Maybe dogs like that should get a death sentence immediately after being impounded. Then the outrage would finally be transferred to holding shitty owners credible instead of being mad at people that are sick of problem animals and have to resort to taking the problem into their owns hands. I could have a lab or pitbull or whatever in my front yard chasing my kids and growling and if I shot it, the news and most the neighborhood would be here within the hour and my face would be plastered all around as the bad guy. when people can no longer police themselves from making their problem a public problem is when the public starts calling for government involvement.  It seems that several have got to that point and I don't blame them.  I used to work at an office where the fat front desk lady had one of them shaggy white lap dogs.  Complete asshole of an animal.  Would bark relentlessly at anyone and everyone including employees and the delivery folks that came everyday. They finally got one of them electric ultrasonic deals that would activate when it barked.  That lasted one day and the owners felt so bad for it that the next day it was back to the uncontrolled barking.  It was incredibly embarrassing having clients come over for meetings to the point I stopped having in-person client meetings. The owners were pretty defensive when I gave them the reason, but they couldn't get it through their thick skulls that not everyone loved their little rat the way they did.    I don't want to restrict anyone from having dogs; just keep them your problem and not mine! I'm well aware that most dog owners in the hunting sphere are not the problem here. Half the problem is people acting like dogs are humans. Calling them kids and brothers and shit.  Man that's weird to me. They're animals.</blockquote>
