more like africanus cross XYZ dips....they are hunting dogs of the locals there.

Dutchie you forget WE have been chased by a few of these *** stoopers,,, the fastest survives

I was just asking because there are a couple of small mutts in packs, that farmer with the U shaped drive way with about 3 dogs comes to mind,,,pron and Sheryl you were chased ,,,if my memory serves you called them ;)

The father saying the seeing a dog being shot was traumatic has obviously not seen how these dogs kill livestock, it`s way more traumatic. My dad lost 10 of his sheep last year due to a pack of these dogs. They didn't kill one to eat, that just went on a killing spree.

 

City slickers just have no idea ......

lol I remember that day....goeie moer I did 1000W on my fiets...

 

Those dogs are the domesticated type...they jumped their yard and chased us. The dogs in question here I have seen on the river / daggapad / greek church sections. They are hunting dogs used by the local to catch small duiker for the pot. They have no home or owner really...they have to hunt to survive. Anything is on the menu for them hence the reason Eric did what he did

Did you not see the comic sans font??

Yes, it is certainly unpleasant to see a dog being shot, esp for kids.

 

However, the farmer / proprietor has a legal obligation to ensure the safety of patrons - doing nothing in respect of a feral dog would constitute negligence and IF someone got hurt, van gaalens could be held liable for damages.  

 

In addition, the reputational risk / implications would be massive - for the business and its employees.

 

Sometimes, unpleasant actions need to be taken to prevent much worse potential future outcomes.  

 

The farmer did the right thing.

I hear you scotty, obviously not the most ideal way ito eliminating them but then again...these "dogs" don't come when being called....they are not domesticated animals AT ALL. It was the best solution given the situation.

No where in the posts have I seen a comment "ag shame leave the poor doggy alone"  as are comment's such as "what if it was your child"  and ridiculing them based on the original story. Tragic that the dogs are not there out of choice but out of circumstances, circumstances that we humans created , I'm sure they would much rather their circumstances be different. 

 

Madmarc has given an account of what he witnessed and it seems reasonable action was taken if the owner did explain his actions.

I agree...read them yesterday and joh some people even the dog lovers clearly have built up anger issues and are venting

Thank goodness that little pack of dogs are not Rotweiller size... 

 

Always three sides to a story. Must say Madmarc's is sounding the most realistic now. If the dog was really shot a few metres away from clients etc, where are the 4million photos? This is the modern era. And we know all those Facebookers have a camera/phone on hand to catch those Facebook Gold viral moments?

 

I wouldn't want my daughters having to witness a dog being shot, but it's a whole lot better than picking up the pieces because they got mistaken for a meal when they went to feed the ducks.

A jackal pales in comparison to a wild Rottweiler-sized dog.
