Could I get in trouble for pepper spraying our neighborhood dogs?
My American bulldog is not good with other dogs. We learned this out quickly after we adopted her. Once we took her to the dog park and she (quite viciously) attacked another dog, they did not press charges though. I know she should get her to a professional trainer but that is just not an option due to expenses. Some dogs are running lose in our neighborhood when we take our dog for a walk. Would it be okay if maised or pepper sprayed their dog, sense ours is on a leash?
How to repel dogs??????
How to repel dogs????
Soo . . . yeah, one of our less known neighbors (no one knows him) owns a chocolat lab and we think he’s letting his dog sh*t on our front garden. We have a fenced bit, but there is some grassy bit on which it poops, and it’s always at random times, so how do we repel it or catch them? Its really peeing me off now!
Coyote's now Fisher Cats and Brown Bears !!!!???
I sure can used some insite on this! Recently we have had many Coyote’s in my neighborhood. I came upon 2 while walking my dogs. Now carry pepper spray but now I was just informed that also Fisher Cats have been sited and also a Brown Bear.
Any information on the latter two would be greatly appreciated!
Most like time to see them? What to do if I do? Should I just not walk the dogs for a while? I do live in a very country setting but Geeze!!!
Thanks Pam but I live in CT. The state has benn importing the Fisher Cats to try to keep the Geese population down?
Where I live is only 1 1/2 mile from the Ct. River and I already checked no consturction near the river.
Tinker dont worry I dont want them hurt at all. I just want to avoid them at all costs.
Thanks K but I dont think my neighbors would appreciate me blasting Nine Inch Nails at 2 am. Their not really into it like me.
CT wild live just says to avoid them. Duh!
Is the tv show Dog the Bounty Hunter an accurate portrayal of how bounty hunters are permitted to behave.?
Ive started watching this show lately and am kind of shocked by it. Are bounty hunters legally allowed to do the following:
Enter someones home without a warrant- These guys often go around knocking on peoples doors and barging their way into their homes. And often they do this to the wanted guys neighbors or other people who have done nothing wrong and are not harboring the wanted man or woman.
Physically Assault people- Some of these guys in Dogs crew, often initiate a fight with some guy- again often somebody who has done nothing wrong and is just mad at them for going around causing chaos and antagonizing them. That young punk who i think is Dogs son seems to seize every opportunity to do this. And ive only ever seen him taking a swing at either old guys, drunks or little guys. If its a young or big guy he just pepper sprays them and then legs it to the car.
Verbally abuse people- These people are annoying self righteous, which is ironic given the history of many of the people in this family, who in the past have been on the wrong side of the law. They all go around talking down to people, using foul language and antagonizing them.
Damage peoples property- Ive seen them kicking down peoples doors and pushing the furniture over, and you hear mirrors smashing things breaking etc.
My dog keeps digging for no reason!!!!!?
My dog is a 10 month old Lab/B.Collie cross.Se digs all the time for no reason! I don’t know what to do.Nothing works, not faeces, not water, not shouting, not pepper, not that spray that is meant to be repulsive to dogs. We shout really bad at her and tell her to go on her bed, which she does without struggle, and we make her stay there in disgrace.
She’s not bored because she has bones, toys, balls etc outside. She likes swimming so we take her swimming, then leave in the garden for about half an hour afterwards to dry off, and she’s dug. I put her outside while I wash the kitchen floor, which takes about five minutes! And she’s dug. I don’t shut the door on her we have a board we put across so she can still see and hear what’s happening in the house, just can’t get in. She has good long walks everyday but still digs. I can’t see any reason why or any way to stop it. She has trashed our garden it has got worse in the past few months, it’s like she enjoys being punished.Please help
What to do about roaming dogs?
I have had bad experiences with irresponsible owners letting their dogs walk around. I have been chased, bitten, growled at, etc. The bites weren’t too bad because I was on my bike. But now there’s a golden retriever mix that is mixed with a large breed. It seems timid at times but dogs always have changing mood in my experiences. I’ve been thinking of using the pepper spray that my mom got when we lived on base which is actually low-grade tear gas. And keeping it with me while I wait at the bus stop and leaving it in the mailbox when I’m about to get on the bus. Or maybe keep a stick with me. Anyone have suggestions?
