Guess what Blu--- I was raised on a farm. I do understand there is a certain mentality among some raised on a farm that dogs are pretty much expendable, but many times it might be a nutcase neighbor that would actually shoot to kill one. More likely, your dog gets hit and killed chasing the school bus and, oh well, ya just get another or before you turn around, someone has dumped another them on your property.

This was a 14 month old pup, that could have absolutely been accepted by a shelter or given away.

What meat I eat has nothing to do with killing a domesticated animal.
