During the breaks in my wonderful night tonight I could not help but stew about this post. Yes, I hope you're happy OP, someone is thinking about you.
My dad talked to some business owners 2 summers ago, I believe, that brought 2 yorkies to work with them. They kept the back door of the biz open & the dogs on a tie out that they could come in and out of.
One day the lady (an older lady) heard her yorkie crying out...she went outside & saw that a hawk had lifted it into the air and was trying to carry it off. I don't know how big either were, but she and her husband basically pulled the dog back down by the lead in addition to throwing things at the hawk. It finally let the yorkie go, the yorkie was not hurt physically, though they were all very upset.
The business is on the outskirts of town, not on vast amounts of land, but not right in the city.
I don't know if the dogs were tied out as a precautionary measure or what but by the way my dad told me, they were.
If the OP was on the lookout for these birds of prey for a week (at least), why could he not come up with another single solution to the possible problem? Why not physically supervise the dogs or try to find a natural way to deter them? Why not fire a shot or two off a little farther away than four feet in their direct path of flight?
He lives in the country, is that because he thinks there is no wild life there? And why would he give such a gruesome play by play of his disgusting attack on an innocent animal?
I can't help but wonder if he would feel the same way had his yorkie wandered onto someone else' property to chase their cat and the cat's owner shot & killed him, then buried him so they could evade any criminal charges....
Of course protect those that you are responsible for, your family, friends, pets, but you can't just go on a bloody rampage out of paranoia. Some people hurt people, does that mean we should go take them all out before they have a chance? Or should we be proactive to do what we can to prevent something from happening and if we do find ourselves in the actual situation deal with it then?
I think it's sick what you've done, you and any other poster can try to justify it anyway you want, however I will stick to
my right to form and post my own opinion as well as believe in karma, which
I believe will deliver a very warranted reality check to you.
Good night, I hope you are sleeping well.
