i think these are dogs on the lam on accident.. although my son just got done walking the neighborhood knocking on doors and no one claims them. The big wolf like one has a broken (?) cable on it's collar.. Son is not sure whether it's a rope or cable. He said it looks like the type of cable we use to lock up our quads.. and that's a tough thing to break.. the other one is a very cute lovable (son says) cattle dog type who is very friendly--that's the one that was chasing the chickens around their coops. I called both humane societies/animal control things in our area and no one has reported them missing yet. I said I would hang on to them for a bit.
I don't know about the shooting of but you can make the owners of said dog pay for any killed livestock. At least in unincorporated Pierce County. I don't know about within city limits. And that's just weird about the wildlife.
