There ain't many #3 shot in a 20 gauge load, that's not the charge I would have picked for a dog.

The man testified in court that he used a 20 gauge shotgun with #3 shot to shoot the dog with.

I have another story.
About five years ago I was vacuming my pool, standing on the deck of about 4'. I am baby sitting a Blue Heeler for a friend. Neighbors pit bull jumps over 5' fence. All I had was the 15 ft vacume pole with about 5 lbs of lead weight on end to hold down to bottom of pool. I swing pole over my head. The vacum hose came off and I hit the pit bull just behind his head with the vacume head. I did not figure it would do any good and everything happened real fast. To my surprise the pit stumbled forward and took a dump. He was dazed so I threw him back over the fence. It was seen across the street and the neighbor came out and said "I heard you hit my dog" Luckily I had calmed down by then and explained what happened. I could not afford to get into a altercation because of my job. That dog was afraid of me until they moved last year. I did acquire a short spear and thought that would be pretty sporting if he jumped again. Thankfully it was never tested. I live in a suberb and could not hide the noise.

I would never shoot another man's dog.....that's just evil. The exception is if the dog is attacking you or your loved ones. Shooting a person's dog is a good way to escalate the situation and get shot yourself. There are better ways and it's not the fault of the dog in any case.

Farmers do it all the time! When you hear that shot ring-out and that yip of a dyin' dog. Just so you know, them boys don't mind puttin' a bead on ol' Sparky and sending him to the light.

I don't know what I would have done, and I won't pass judgement.
But ... just a point to ponder: if I did it in my back yard over here, even if the court ruled I was right in shooting the dog, it could have lead to my firearms license cancelled and a forsed sale of my guns.
