Calling all teenagers

For both of you:
It's YOUR responsibility too keep your animals safe, put up a fence, predator proof your Coops and runs. If a dog can get in any other predators can too, you can't expect to shoot any animals on your property all the time. Killing a pet dog isn't the right thing, ever. The dog doesn't need to pay with its life for the lack of appropriate animal housing
I have a fence. But I also have crappy neighbors. my dogs have done a good job scaring the neighbors aggressive dog away so far but I always know there is the possibility that one day it will get overly confident. It has almost bitten me before. I am not going to suffer the death of my pets or injuries from a 80 lb dog. And killing would be the last resort. We don't have guns either. So it would probably be a metal pipe, which I know is a lot worse. But I will stand by that
 
You can still have adequate proofing. If a dog really wants that it will give you problems.

Think of it this way:

You have a choice: Leave the predator and keep you animals at risk, especially if it is a determined predator that won't stop.

Or do everything you can to not kill it, and if that doesn't work, kill it and your animals will be safe.

It's better one creature loses its life than the however many you have.

Dogs do cause damage. I have seen them in the farming areas here carrying chickens. They are vicious.

We all have different opinions and it's clear you do not have to deal with what those of us in these areas have to deal with. I think we should stop this discussion because it will turn into what I call a "POO SHOW"
Yeah we better since you clearly aren't comprehending what I said about predator proof aka predators CANT GET IN

Absolutely terrible, not only killing it but thrashing it to death with a pipe

and the other thing is I don't have disposable income. I have no job. I am not able to get a better fence.

It may be predator proof but there is always the risk of something going wrong.

Not going to argue with you since I've dealt with you and you've always managed to screw stuff up big time.
 
Now can we please all just shut the hell up about this topic and move on? We can see things differently, we are humans after all. I agree killing dogs or any animal is horrible, but how we deal with our animals is up to us. I don't want us to be divided over a hypothetical situation.
