Re: I killed a Rottweiler... with my mind
Just a heads up. There are numerous cases of an excited dog that is charging someone or some thing that will break right through the shock of the e-fence. The adrenalin gets flowing, the dog gets focused and ignores the pain and breaks right through.
So I'd not depend on an e-fence stopping a charging dog or be any type of guaranteed deterrent.

Re: I killed a Rottweiler... with my mind
I would like to settle some ruffled feathers here. I posted my story because it is a positive reflection of what training and preparedness mean in an unanticipated event. Had I not trained myself to react calmly, and in a focused manner, things might have turned out like so many of the recent dog shooting stories. I would have hated to have shot a dog, but even my own dog would lose out if it threatened my wife or child.
The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but believe me, it's on the damned list.

Re: I killed a Rottweiler... with my mind
Please site the law that would allow a person to shoot my dog that hasn't left my property. If he is on my property and you are not please tell me how you are being attacked? He cannot attack you if you are not trespassing. If you are trespassing the last worry you have is my dogs.

Re: I killed a Rottweiler... with my mind
The statute regarding "dogs as nuisances" doesn't make a distinction about whose property the dog is on, if the dog is "pursuing, wounding or attacking human beings".
http://www.animallaw.info/statutes/s...9_502.htm#s501
§ 459-501. Killing dogs; dogs as nuisances
(a) Legal to kill certain dogs.--Any person may kill any dog which he sees in the act of pursuing or wounding or killing any domestic animal, wounding or killing other dogs, cats or household pets, or pursuing, wounding or attacking human beings, whether or not such a dog bears the license tag required by the provisions of this act. There shall be no liability on such persons in damages or otherwise for such killing.
(b) Private nuisance.--Any dog that enters any field or enclosure where domestic animals are confined, provided that the enclosure is adequate for the purpose intended, shall constitute a private nuisance, and the owner or tenant of such field, or their agent or servant, may detain such dog and turn it over to the local police authority or State dog warden or employee of the department. While so detained, the dog shall be treated in a humane manner.
(c) Licensed dogs not included.--Licensed dogs, when accompanied by their owner or handler, shall not be included under the provisions of this section unless caught in the act of pursuing, wounding or killing any domestic animal, wounding or killing any dogs, cats or household pets, or pursuing, wounding or attacking human beings.Last edited by twency; June 12th, 2012 at 09:55 PM.
I am not a lawyer. Nothing I say or write is legal advice.

Re: I killed a Rottweiler... with my mind
if the dog had been holding a cell phone you would have been justified in shooting it.

Re: I killed a Rottweiler... with my mind
Had the op been a LEO and shot the dog as it "charged" everybody here would be cop bashing.
