We had an incident only 4 weeks ago of a dog coming onto the property, she 
had approached my children while I was down in the field, I came flying up 
to destract her from them, she came down and nearly licked me to death.  She 
was friendly enough, but hungry, matted and sunken.  We called the dog 
control but no luck in them arriving on time, she found out about the 
rabbits and chickens, the kids started to "freak out" - she went for them.  
I put them in the car, with all the commotion the guy who I lease from had 
heard it came out and took her down in one shot.  2 hours later when dog 
control finally came to pick up the body he noticed that  the dog was very 
young and commented that she was in a better place that she wasn't very well 
taken care of.  He had also noticed that she didn't suffer for too long as 
where the one bullet that entered was a good shot, said that when the police 
are called to take down a dog they usually require more than one bullet.  I 
had also been attacked in the city while walking to work at 6:30am by a pack 
of 4 dogs, I was pregnant at the time.  My experience taught me exactly what 
Marc said - a dog on the run is a wild dog.  Jacqueline
