Cataholic, I totally see your point, especially after what you have experienced. I don't know the whole story, but I do know that some people tend to over-react over loose dogs and will do CRAZY things when the dog is no where near them. I've heard tragic stories on the news of dogs killed for simply being out of their yards on their front lawns. I am not condoning loose dogs in anyway, shape or form but I do think some accidents are unwarranted killing the animal really isn't necessary.

Cindy, I am so sorry to your friend. I really am. May Molly rest in peace and I hope Winston is okay!
