Animal owners are responsible for the actions of their animals.

I had a German Shepherd that would eat a chicken feathers and all.

I don’t care if it was the most gentle, lapdog puppy out there....if it destroys my property, I have a right to defend that property by any means necessary.

I'd say the neighbor exercised remarkable restraint by calling animal control first, going out with a weapon to defend his chickens and, then, only when the dog attacked, by shooting it.
Had it been me, I'd shot it the moment it attacked my chickens and called animal control only to show them the evidence and have them haul away the corpse, if I bothered calling them at all.

If you let your dog run loose, you risk having a carcass and not a pet.
Dogs running free are a potential menace and should they exhibit destructive tendencies, they must be eliminated.
The responsibility lies solely with the dog owner and it is he who must face any criminal and/or civil actions for his misconduct.

Beautiful dog. Damn shame it had such a stupid owner.
Once a dog gets a taste for livestock or starts running in a pack, there’s no going back. I’ve seen chicken coops decimated by Lassie gone wild.

Once again we have forgotten one of the many rules of Fight Club. The Three “S” rule. Shoot-Shovel-Shut up! What the eye can not see the heart will not miss.

Shoot, shovel, shut up. Although I agree with you in principle, I'm wondering if there are legal risks in not reporting the incident in some jurisdictions. Is it possible that it is against the law in some places not to report the fact that you just shot someone else's dog? Just wondering if failure to report could make an otherwise legal use of a gun somehow (or somewhat) vulnerable to legal action of some kind.

Where I grew up it was standard practice to shoot any dog running loose on the farm. If not they would usually find each other and then you have a pack. Very dangerous.

Oh well, the lawyers will get theirs regardless of fault. Doth dog and chickens will still be dead.
Breeder, dog’s new owner and the farmer, all three will end up lining two or three ambulance chasers’ pockets.

Agreed. My Dad would have done the 3S solution, but I am not sure it would be the prudent course to follow today.
When my Dad was my age, society still followed common sense.

Years ago I worked with a guy until he was transferred south to our Shelbyville KY stamping plant. He bought a fenceless house in the country then two huskies. Well, one day the dogs wandered away from the house and attacked and killed a neighbor's cow.
He not only had to pay for the cow but had to put down the dogs...........very unfortunate.

Animal owners are responsible for the actions of their animals. Novel concept.
My daughter carries extra bags when she walks her dogs. When she sees an irresponsible owner about to leave poop, she walks up to them and says "I see you have run out of bags, no problem I have extra, here is one for you" ha ha ha

Made the mistake, long ago, of leaving my beagle with access to the chickens.
When I came home it was to find every chicken killed
and the beagel looking the happiest I’d ever seen him.
