Crap

I've got two free range lab mixes and they often hunt small game. They bring rabbits, squirrels, the occasional chipmunk and a couple possums. Today on my way out the door I saw something I didn't want to see. Either they found, or more likely killed a fawn. I don't want them killing the deer around the house or even chasing them.

When I was a kid we had a dog that killed a chicken. My dad beat the dog with the chicken, then tied it around the dogs neck and let it rot off. I don't really want to do that but I did tie the carcus to the one who was eating on it and scolded him until he was whimpering in a ball.

Will this be effective, or should I do something else?

My dad would have shot him.

I have a neighbor who lives a little over half a mile from my property. They have two big dogs that I have seen a couple times on my place - once, chasing a deer, and one time, had some hogs bayed up. I have several game cam pics of them. I didn't want to shoot them, so I went to the neighbor and let them know I was going to be setting some traps for coyote so they needed to make sure their dogs were not running free on my land. They assured me their dogs would never stray that far from home.

Yeah right; dogs can cover a lotta ground in a very short time, one of my coon hounds wound up on a farm 20 miles from where I turned him out the night before! The guy called me and said come get him and the raccoon he had treed in the guys yard!

Big fat fingers, he went over the mountain, I had to travel 20+miles of highway to get to the guys farm, I will promise you, this dog ran a bear on mount Shasta so long, he died! We had to leave the mountains on Sunday to get home for work, the forest rangers tracked him by sound and on the next Friday found him dead! All we got back was my collar! His name was Breeze, one of the best Black’n Tans I ever had! When I picked him up that day at the farm, he could just barely walk his feet was so sore! I would’ve stayed with him except the briars and stingin nettle did me in! I called trying to break him off but he was a hard dog to break off trail, and in them days we didn’t have fancy collars!
