Everyone looses.

It's safe to say that guy falls into the "bad owner" bucket.
shardian:
I've been in contact with the fellow who wrote the news article I posted. He met with the owner last night and saw the dog. He also tried to meet with the shooter to get his side of the story. Before I finish that incident, I'd like to sidebar about the shooter.
I have heard from several sources the guy is a first class ---uvula---. My neighbor told me of an incident involving him. She was outside, and saw the man's daughter allow her dog to poop in her yard and went to walk off without cleaning it up. The neighbor called the girl back, told her that she needs to pick that up, and even supplied her with a plastic baggy. A few minutes later, the dad showed up, yelled at my neighbor, and threw the bag of poop at her house. He then showed back up a few minutes after that to apologize, say he overreacted, then picked back up the poopie sack. I took that story with a grain of salt...until I heard the next thing.
This is the reporters words:
--- Quote ---I went to the home at 124, which I was told was the shooter's house. As you say, it is up the street and around the corner.
Here is what happened: As I approached that home, a dog inside went into a barking frenzy and I could hear it slamming against the front door. A man SCREAMED at the dog. When I knocked on the door, a shirtless, goateed man with a shaved head came out yelling. I introduced myself and he then asked who I was. (I had JUST told him that!) I re-identified myself, he grabbed my camera, and tried to shove me off the steps. (He later admitted this to the deputy that I called.)

:laugh2: At least the guy was honest to the police.
ChadTower:
I wonder who is more dangerous - the dog or that guy. Either way the guy did your work for you. Just be sure to keep the eff away from him.
