    2 Dogs shot - Clements rd

    Just heard of 2 dogs being shot at Clements rd !Apparently for no reason.

    Apart from some one thinking the own the place & have the right to shoot
    another persons dog because its in "their" area .

    Also a report of a couple of dogs possible poisoning (in a dog box).
    But this may of been due to over heating .

    Anyone know or heard any thing ?

    That is not good at all Chris.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Unless there are facts from DoC, NZ Police or another verifiable source, its hearsay as far as I'm concerned.

    I have not done a lot of hunting down Clements Mill Road but in the times I have been there I have never seen any pig sign.

    Four dogs dead due to what?...you said that two could have been poisoned or heat exhaustion [massive leap between those two alone]...some of the breeds used for pig dogs nowadays would be cause alone for me to shoot on sight...I am with dogmatix on this one and would like to see verification from reliable source.
    Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.

    Is there something we are missing? Why are people jumping on the messenger? Random people who think they have the right to shoot a dog on public land would want to have a pretty good reason for doing so imo. Hunting dogs get lost every now and then.
