The originial point of this post was to deal with "well known"
neighborhood dogs that were deliberatly let run loose. Assuming that
loose dogs are a problem in your neighborhood, this is an excellent
method of making the point to the "inconsiderate" jerks that own the
dog without doing any real harm to the dog. *lost* dogs were obviously
not the focus of the original post, there is considerable difference
between an occasional *lost* dog and dogs that are deliberatly turned
out by their slobs of owners. No one has the right to let their dog
run loose and a large red paint spot on the side of the dog gets the
attention of the owner.

OK, I understand now. It's OK to shoot the wandering dogs as long
as you don't hit them in the eyes...and don't shoot the dogs at
point blank range. Of course, since the dog is protected by fur
it will only sting. And those painful welts will certainly go
away in a few days. And make sure you wear a face mask when you
do it! (to protect yourself or hide from being identified?)

See, this is what I mean. My dog was hit by a car and everyone
jumps in my face. This person tells you it's OK to shoot the
stray dogs...just don't hit their eyes...and that's OK.

This is sick! And the rest of you just sit there and watch...
it must be perfectly OK to do this. Did you see the subject:

Hey CHILL, dude. They didn't say they went out to HUNT
for dogs. If it's a dog that _needs_ to carry the message back
to its owner, like one you know belongs to an irresponsible
dipshit up the street, and you're tired of getting "sprayed"
by your lawnmower, etc. then I say fair game.

Once again, one of the main tenets of this group is that it is
the OWNER of the dog that needs to be educated, and we
do NOT condone taking our aggressions out on the hapless
animal.

A paintball can cause significant injury to the dog, including possible broken
bones or internal injuries. In addition, the shooter can be sued for injury to
an animal, and even prosecuted.

Call animal control out on the dog. This is the only reasonable solution. If
they won't pick the dog up, live trap it and take it in to your local animal
shelter.

OH PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESE KEN!

Don't want to hurt the little puppy with paintball gun? Myself I think
its a GREAT IDEA! I go running every day and I can't count the number of
times people are walking their little "he won't hurt anyone" dogs who
bare their teeth at me as I jog past. Yes I have had several nipping at
my heels who are very intent on biting. A paintball shot into their
"cute" little head should take care of them without causing any damage.
I have considered using a small caliber handgun, but you need a concealed
weapons permit to carry the things. A small paintball gun will do the
deed without all of the legal nonsense.

Great idea Lynda!

You people perpetuating this idea that it's okay to administer
pain to an innocent animal are warped. Have you ever been hit by
a paint ball? It can be incredibly painful. I suggest y'all strip
down to the bare ass, bend over, let a friend shoot you in the
buttocks with a paintball, then repost when you know how it feels.

I have been lurking on this group (a.r) for a while, and this made my
blood boil, so I had to put finger to keyboard to tell you what I think.

ANY one who shoots ANY dog for ANY reason using ANY type of gun,
is totally sick and depraved, these sad bastards that indulge in this
sick practice, should have done to them what they planned to do to the
poor harmless dog!!

It's the owners you want to get revenge on, not the poor dog, leave
the dogs alone!!!!

Find some other method of revenge that does not involve attacking
the victims dogs. Their is NO justification for attacking ANY animal
for ANY reason!!!

Yes, but what kind of attention from the owner? Does anyone know if
this is legal? I can just see some "slob" owner suing someone because
the dog was shot with a paintball. I have read about owners suing
someone who shot their dog with BB/pellet guns. I know they cause more
damage than paint guns, but what keeps these guys from suing under those
same grounds? It just sounds a little too risky for my taste. Not to
mention the admitedly remote chance that you could actually hurt the
dog. Sounds to me like the safest way to get rid of a pesky roaming dog
is to call the dog catcher and let them take it to the pound. That too
gets the owner's attention with the $40 bail they have to pay to get the
dog back.

>>Whitewolf.
Dear Whitewolf:

How harmless is that wonderful dog when it is killing my baby goats, or
pulling down some little girl's pet geese. A loose dog is a hazard to
every thing around it. They are dogs, they do things that dogs do. As
for getting revenge on the owners that is what the paintball is for.
It lets the owners know that the next time their dog is running loose
it may not be so lucky. And by luck I mean that it could be hit by a
car, get in a fight with a bigger, meaner dog, or if it is attacking
stock or killing someone else's pet, it could be killed. It is very
nice to think that the dog, only doing what dogs do, should not be
punished, however given the number of irresponsible owners that don't
give a d**m about their dogs, which is the case with anyone that lets a
dog run loose, it is unlikely that they will keep their dog up. If
they wanted to be reasonable, rational people they wouldn't let their
dog run loose to start with, so good luck getting them to do anything.
And animal control, in most areas, only work certain hours, they don't
come out early in the morning and late in the evening, nor do they come
out on the weekend. And that assumes you know who owns the dog.
As for paintballs hurting, yes they sting. I play the game. However
dogs have fur and hide which prevent much of the sting. And further,
it hurts a hell of a lot less to be hit with a paintball that to be hit
by a car and let to die by the side of the road, have your leg caught
in a trap for days on end, be hit over the head with a shovel, baseball
bat, or shot. All of these things happen to loose dogs. A paintball
is the least of the things that might happen, but it can get the owners
attention quickly.

Wolffe:
Here is the problem, many of these dogs are running when there is no
animal control available, or you call animal control and by the time
they arrive there isn't a dog in sight.
As for being sued, here is the thing: anyone, if they can get a lawyer
stupid enought to do it, can sue you for any thing they can think of.
This does not mean that they can collect and a very good way to stop
this is to counter sue, ask for your attorney fees and also ask for
sanctions against the lawyer for filing a frivilous case. The asking
for sanctions will "wake" up the lawyer in a hurry. No case, you get
your fees back and the other party learns that suing for junk reasons
can cost money. Further, there is little chance that you can be sued
for "painting" a dog.
Since I don't know anythng about the case you cited, I really can't
comment, however generally speaking you only have a case if the dog was
injured for no reason and was on your property.

Whether or not any of us own guns (real,bb.pellet,paint) can we
now assume it's just not a "good idea" to shoot a wandering dog
with a paint gun?

I have spoken to a licensed gun dealer and he agrees with me that
the force in using a paint pellet gun (Co2 powered) could most
certainly harm a dog.

I am not so sure such a suit would be dismissed so easily as it
is unlawful to discharge ANY type of gun in a residential area.

Well I will agree with you on this point. I certainly would not just
shoot a "wandering dog". As long as it minds his own business I wouldn't
have a problem with the animal.

Dillon,

A lot of good its going to do to call Animal control when an animal is in
the process of attacking you! I will have to say that the OWNER will be
the one getting sued for damages caused by his/her uncontrolled dog.

I'll stand by my original statement that the paintball gun is an
excellent way to prevent any personal injuries from dog attack.

I can't believe that you and Ken would want a person to get attacked
first and then do something about it! And thats exactly what you are
saying when you state that a person shouldn't carry any personal
protection against animals. I run every day and have to deal with this
at least once a week. I've carried pepper spray and it just doesn't have
the range to get into a dogs eyes where it will do the most good. And I
don't feel like wrestling with the animal just to get him to open his
eyes so I can spray him.

No its no the dogs fault that he is aggressive. Typically the owners
encourage it from their animals so they can be "protective". Well their
"protective" animals will get them sued extremely quick if the animals
attack the wrong person.

And if the owners want to sue me for protecting myself, we will see who
will prevail in court.

it sits at the pound for a week, and they gas it (Humane, eh? Not

Okay, here's the easy solution for all those who want to paint the dog red to
send a message to the owner AND all those who oppose painting said dog red
with a paintball gun. Make friends with the dog, bring out a can of red paint
and a brush, and while rubbing the beast's belly (dogs that aren't rabid LOVE
this) take the brush, dip into the can of paint, and then dab a bit of paint
on the dog. No welts, no weapons discharge, no grounds for a lawsuit.

Obviously, if the dog is dangerous or you can't get near it, this won't work.

This is relevant to the question of shooting dogs with paintballs
only if you assume that the dogs have been shaved first, so that
they *also* have bare asses.

Have you ever been bitten by a dog? It can be incredibly painful.

Are you implying a thin layer of fur/hair would act as a pain
abatement for a high-velocity projectile? I made the "bare ass"
statement assuming most humans have a bare ass, but we'll assume
yours is hairy, and your knuckles drag.

We've gone from revenge on barking dogs to defending youself
against a ferocious biting animal. Big difference. *Read* before

As I recall, this whole thread started by someone wanting to mute
a barking dog. It escalated into ways to kill the dog, and not
deal with the humans responsible for it. I still think anyone
who advocates using a paintball gun needs to get an idea how it
feels be it on the bare ass, or any place else.

You also have to remember that dogs don't have the regular skin on their
butts that a human has.. They have what is called hide.. Hide is a thinck
skin.. They have this so that when something much like a paintball or bb
DOES hit them, it doesn't hurt quite as much.

Now, put yer undies back on, pull up your pants, THEN have a friend shoot you
in the butt with a paintball from about 50 feet or so.

I agree paintball guns are dangerous to shoot at dogs. In a case like that "spray paint" the side of the dog and the owner should get the message.
I wouldn't do it the first time I see a dog, maybe the 10th time. GET EM!! it's the owner's fault, hopefulyl the dog will go home with wet paint and get it on the owner's stuff (couch, clothes, floor, carpet, etc...)

I just received a call from a friend who has been reading this
subject and he claims that paintball guns "CAN" kill a dog
without any effort! Does anyone know for sure how safe the
paintball guns really are?

It depends on the size of the dog, but it would cause injury
and/or a great deal of pain to any dog. A small dog may be
killed, depending on the distance in which the gun was fired.

I had the unique experience of going on a paint ball adventure
with several members of the LAPD. Some of the biggest machos cops
winced in pain when hit. Okay, who invited Bob from S.W.A.T.? <G>

Do not use paint pellet guns! Use a shot gun with rock salt loads in
it. MUCH more effective!

This ia all bull crap..PAINT ball guns WIL NOT kill a dog. THey hurt
but do not kill. UNless the dog is perhaps a new born.
ANyhow...don't risk pissing an owner off in the first place. Just do
like i do. When a dog is wandering around on my property i should the
sucker dead and throw him under a big tree I have in the back pasture.
I must have ten or so dogs there by now. Then you don't have to worry
about getting sued, etc. Or the dumb dog ever coming back. If you
live in an area where you can't shoot the dog then just trap him and
then kill it with a baseball bat.

This is true, I once shot a bird with a PB gun [it was an accident, I swear!].
Anyways, the bird flew away, surprised but highly alive.

I really would not even cosider using PB [weapons] for the purpose of revenge -
as I classify it as a gun, and therefore something that should be left out of a
revenge scheme.. like bombs and stuff.. but then again there are enough people
crazy enought to do bombs - I just don't see the point.

There are several schemes for vengance upon a dog, in the avenger's handbook,
and they don't hurt the innocent animal.

What an incredible dork. Who but someone with a really big chip on his
shoulder would care about a dog wandering on his property. He's probably
some goofy little nerdy psychopath with lots of frustrations in his life.

Try using some WOOD alcohol and placing it in some food for the dog.
It'll metabolize into formaldehyde and "embalm" the dog alive. It will
die a slow, agonizing death.

you should try and get hold of a few mines and plant around the edge
of the perimeter of your property and when the dog decides too take a
walk on your garden or whatever BANG ,but theres a few problems he'll be
all over your house and garden which you dont want and if anyone stands on
on your land they'll get there leg blown off at least...
maybe this isnt such a good idea did you try
and see if asking nicely to the owner will he keep the dog of your land??

It really does depend on the size of the dog. Anything over about 10
pounds, and forget it. I nailed my ex-roomate's dog a few times after
it tore up the bathroom looking for dirty kleenex. When I shot him
the first time, at about 300fps, he just sat there with this stupid,
shitt-eating look on his face. So I cranked my Sniper up to about
450-500fps (no chrony... a Wes Wong sound test estimate...), right up
to the point where the seams were going in the barrel, and laid a few
on him. He never did react that much, but then again, it was a REALLY
stupid dog.

Sorry if you're reading this K.T. , but you know
how much everyone hates that damn dog...

Well, that weren't ALL the same! The formatting of the text was
different in a couple of those posts.

And that land mine idea. . . . . . this guy shouldn't have posted, he

Oh my god, it is SUCH a pain to have a dog wander across your
property.

What are you, some kind of African Chiclid? (sp mine because you
don't even deserve my running the spell checker and that species of
fish isn't even in there and even if it were, you would miss the point
because you don't know shit about chiclids. But it's a tropical fish
that is VERY teritorial.)

If a dog running across your property, even shitting there upon, is
the worst thing that ever happens to you, you've led a very blessed
life.

Of which you should consider getting one.

Yes, the dogs are killing / injuring livestock on my farm.

Although, I would be happy with just finding some good ways to keep
the dogs away. Fencing is expensive and I am installing it now (about
a mile's worth). Short of killing the animals, what is your solution?
The dogs are killing my livestock which feed, clothe and shelter my
family. Also, my children can not play in our 10 acre yard without
these 'valued' pets of our neighbor's chasing them. We have dogs and
cats of our own. All of ours have been neutered, vaccinated, wormed
and restricted by pens or chains so as not to bother neighbors or

Are these dogs mean, or can you approach them? If they are approachable,
catch them when they are on your property and then call animal control
who will make the owners pay $$$$ to get them back.

If the are mean, call animal control and tell them they chased your kids
on your property. In some locations that is enough to get the dogs
executed by the state.

In your case the best revenge may be legal, if your neighbors are anything better
then white trash you can sue them for anything their dogs do on your property.
Many 'personal injury' lawyers are interested in dog injury cases, especially
if the owners are homeowners with nice fat liability insurance policies.

I hate lawyers, but if you can make a buck with them, go for it.

If all else fails, get some Blackleaf-40.

OK, so what's the response from the neighbor?
(The philosophy of this group is to concentrate on the
asshole-ishness of the human, not the dogs which are
only following their natural instink.)

What breed? (His and yours). Quantity each side?

What livestock? Large like horses/cattle, or dimutive
like goats/sheep? (Vulnerability).

While I dropped out of this thread a while back. I apparently have the
same problem as this individual. I have ten acres and livestock and the
neighbors have two wandering dogs.
I have one French Alpine goat,pot-belly-pigs and piglets,horses(
Quarter horse mares with foals)TB yearlings,ponies, and several horses
from the racetrack to be reschooled. I fence with a combination of hot
wire and barbless wire.
My dogs are behind chain link,except for two. The dogs are an
acient foxhound,two mutts, a very small terrier-who is also paralyzed in
her left front leg, and a German Shepherd. the terrier and the GSD are
the only two ever out of the yard. They go with me in the fields etc.
The neighbor's dogs are a female Pitbull and a male Dalmation.
The owners do not think that there is any danger or anything wrong with
wandering dogs and that it is natural for them to chase other animals.

A 30-06 should do. That way you can miss the head and hit them in the
chest and still be sure of killing them all most instantly. A 30-30
might do but I don't think a chest shot would kill instantly so you
would have to hit the head. Pioson might work, but I don't know poisons
well so I couldn't recomend one that would kill humanely. A shot gun
should work well at close range. Again if you use a 12gauge with 00
buck it should kill all most instantly if you hit them in the head or
chest.
