How bloody ridiculous.!!!!!  |
Redfrog, I find your thought process very interesting. Your reasoning is that because someone cannot provide you with the stats on the number of tickets issued for dogs running at large it doesn't happen?
I was just going to ignore your argument as I don't feel that it is of any value to the debate however I just might as well edumacate you with a little light reading:

"DURANGO, Colo. — A Colorado wildlife officer has shot and killed an unleashed dog that was harassing an elk near Durango."

"Conservation officers from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) are receiving a growing number of reports about dogs chasing and harassing deer."

"COKEVILLE - After responding to complaints of dogs chasing and killing deer, and complaints of people on snowshoes running off deer and elk to get their antlers, one local game warden suggests it's time that people take control of their ethics and their pets and stop harassing the wildlife."

"Dogs running deer!"
When you're done reading all of that, why not ride your goat on down and feast a bit?

'Nuff said, I'm done with the subject of whether or not dogs running at large exists or not. It is of no value. Unless of course you have some sort of proof that it doesn't happen.
