agree. maybe she was trying to get in front of the story. Strange.

It sounds like the dog was vicious and it bit her so putting it down might have been justified but to do it yourself with a gun is a bit radical.

That’s how we dud it with old dogs that could no longer function due to disease or in accidents.

“putting it down might have been justified but to do it yourself with a gun is a bit radical.”

Any hardscrabble old farmer knows you don’t want to waste ammunition on a dog so you take them over to the horse trough for a drowning. At the very least #4 buck at close range. But taking pot shots with a rifle or a pistol is a gamble and prone to a messy wounding.
