Here you go Red

I tried finding some other info on this situation, but the only thing I came across was her Facebook page, which she apparently doesn't mind being open to public scrutiny:
https://www.facebook.com/joy.mcdonald.982#!/joy.mcdonald.58?sk=wall

She apparently wanted the publicity: https://www.facebook.com/joy.mcdonald.58/posts/436202083078814
It's "so retarded": https://www.facebook.com/joy.mcdonald.58/posts/436717496360606

[redhen]

Honestly, I wish we'd keep the discussion to the actual subject, the dogs roaming loose, causing terror in a neighbor who is afraid of dogs as well as a chicken's death, not the woman's entire life. It's easy to get off on tangents. There are folks who are PhDs who move the rural areas and still have the same notions and cause the same damage with their dogs.

Well she did offer to pay for the chicken. I can tell you right now. If my dogs which I have several of got out and killed my neighbors chickens for one I would understand if he shot them. But on the other hand if he calls me screaming and cussing I would probably react the way she did. Should the dogs be confined yes. But Jail time and $1000 fine come on people be realistic. She offered to pay to replace the bird. She lives out in the county where in most there are no leash laws. That is why alot of folks live there. Because of cases like this we have to pay that much more to house inmates because stuff like this ties up the court room

1.Warn the dog owner that the dogs are pestering

2. Protect your property/livestock

3.Tell dog owner dogs have been dealt with and she still owes your for Chickens

But we get space wasted in news papers and money wasted in the court system why? Because everyone loves the drama.

I love my Chickens like I do my dogs. But I'm not wasting everyones time trying to get someones life ruined because of something that could be dealt with without the legal system.

mabye you would rather be like me a man with 2 dogs and a fenced yard in new mexico always let his dogs out and they attacked my dog who was out on a chain just long enough to go potty. they punctured my dogs lung..we had a huge vet bill and the vet had to reinflate his lung and then it got infected so another vet bill and the sheriff's dept. would not even charge him because he had a fence and we did not. we were renting at the time.

The dogs didn't ATTACK!!! The barked and it gave the chickens a heart attack!

 

[dainerra]

actually, they were barking and chasing. That IS an attack. One of them got inside the pen. Again, that IS an attack.

If some strange man with a gun got into your house and was chasing you from room to room would you tell the police "it's OK, he didn't attack me?"

ETA: or, a situation to perfectly mirror the dog supporters' claim. Your 89 year old grandmother comes downstairs. 2 teenage boys are outside, banging on the door, running from window to window trying to find a way in. Grandmother is scared and yelling for help. She has a heart attack. Would you tell the police that the boys did nothing wrong?

Also, the chances that she would lose her job over this are slim to none. The chances of losing her children are even smaller. Even if she DID get jail time (which is unlikely), the chances of losing her children are microscopic.
