The occasional neighbor's dog wandering through the property is no big deal.

But dogs chasing deer is not going to be tolerated.

I work too hard all year 'round to manage the deer herd.

Dang, that sucks. Did I see a collar on that dog?

Boom

Shoot. Shovel. Shut up. Problem solved.

Yep, don't say another word...just do it.

What dog?

I drove 1 1/2 hrs to get in my blind a couple weeks ago to try to nab a big Axis buck with my bow. 2 dogs were chasing axis deer and whitetails all around the place for atleast 30-45 minutes. They were even next to my popup blind and I hollered at them but they could care less. Sure ruined my hunt.

You got it correct

No, I haven't seen him but I'll keep an eye out for him and let you know if I do!!!!

Do what you have to but keep your mouth shut.

The collar looks too thick to be a regular collar...may be a GPS. Which may indicate a trained dog which could compound your problem. Take this picture to your game warden and ask what to do. More of us may have this problem.. you're probably not by yourself. I have as many as three packs ..I can't say they are chasing deer as the pics I have are walking by...however...I can hear a big dog barking a lot many times the last couple of years.

Wouldn`t be my first time.

That’s a Black Panther if I’ve ever seen one.

Shoot, remove collar and shoot or hammer it out of existence if it's a GPS collar, shovel and shut up. The more people you get involved, the more complicated and potentially troublesome for you it may get. Don't tell your soul mate, your relatives, the game warden, the sheriff or any of your neighbors. Don't even tell PETA. Take this secret to your grave.

He would not last long doing that to my deer.

If people are too stupid or unwilling to keep their dogs penned then bad things will happen.

Last two years we had major issues with neighbors dogs running deer in your lease. Contacted them GW and he came out and went and talked to neighbors. Apparently didn't care to be hold what to do with their dogs. Said there was nothing more he could do, so... Don't say anything and do what you need to do.

Happens a lot more than any game cameras capture or anyone has an eyeball on

Too late for the "don't tell" advice. Plans are on the interweb...

I get this crap in east TX as well. I've had some ugly crossbreed muts back there causing all sorts of commotion. One time topping off a feeder I turned around and had one spying down the lane at me. Could barely get it out of the holster before he burned off hollering all the way through the trees

Think a lot of ours come from some backyard breeders around the corner. Some of them have been some of the ugliest muts I've ever seen, not sure if inbred or crosbred with the other wildlife or what

It is not a dog problem, it is a dog owner problem.

Don't if this helps or not but I found this on the "net":

Can you shoot a dog attacking livestock in Texas?
Yes, but you could risk a lawsuit and a criminal citation, depending on the facts. Section 822.013 of the Texas Health and Safety Code allows a livestock owner to shoot a dog or coyote that is attacking, is about to attack, or has recently attacked their livestock, provided that the owner witnessed the attack.

With the video you have looks like you can do what is best for your animals.
