I raise beagles and bassets ( the wife does the big breeds- sheperds, rotts [ all German] and labs)

Thats why that article really bothered me- if a human did something like that, dont waste govt money charging him, just send him to me and when I'm done he will wish that ALL he got was a felony conviction. Beagles are kinda like my children.

They arent any more "curious" than any other breed we raise but they are natural roamers and when they catch a scent, they are GONE. They will pursue "whatever' until they catch it or get hungry enough to come home. ( I cant count the times i have had to use the dogs to go find dogs or set up a grill with burgers to get the scent out so they will come to it)

I could easily see them locking on to a rat, cat or whatever and chasing it inside a machine such as a combine, plow or whatever. And they dont leave- they will sit there and howl ( or sing) until someone comes and gets them.

I'd love to catch someone hurting a dog, I'd take a baseball bat to them with no hesitation. And No Quarter.

I didn't take a look at the link, but I could just imagine what it would look like. That poor dog and how it suffered and how cruel and malicious a person could be for doing that to an animal. Who is the animal here? The dog, or the person who skinned it? to the person who did that to the poor dog..

We can take shifts and i know lots of places and good attorneys

Unfortunately - I did, despite the warning of grahic images. That was my only reason for the picture I posted. I just do not have enough information to evaluate anything about this.

I would like to hear more about the events briefly touched on - prior to this injured dog, I believe Watch1 made reference to events leading up to this particular situation.

Watch1 is entitled to his opinion just as everyone else is on this forum.........in the final analysis, it matters not what any of us think a Sasquatch would or would not do, could or could not do.......it is ALL speculation since none of us have studied one to know what it's methods, mannerisms, and survival instincts are. To talk smack or to call him ludicrous is just that...........ludicrous

Trust me, you don't want to look at it. I made that mistake. Don't torture yourself, honestly it's not worth it.

The person or persons responsible for doing that should have millions of tiny little papercuts applied to them and then be cast into a pool full of mercurchrome or alcohol with the edges of the pool electrified so each time they try and crawl their way out they are shocked right back in. It is absolutely dispicable what they did to that poor dog and in my opinion are a complete waste of human skin!
