I'm sorry to hear that Kirby. Somebody somewhere will know something. Don't say anything about it be-n your dog when out there. And maybe someone will say something in passing leading you to who did it.
As much as I don't like local dogs running loose chasing deer by irresponsible local owners, there are times when an honest person honestly looses his dog. I've had it happen to me with a trained Brittney pup during dove season one year. I suspect someone stole him.
Been out here since before sun up. Doe just busted me, from upwind, behind my popup, with those windows closed. Wierd. She was blowing for about 70 yds running away lol.
That is horrible. Had tags and everything?! I mean at least try to gather the poor thing. Its not like it was on some else's land. Just horrible.
Had tags. From the looks of it he may have traveled off the corp land and they shot him on private and dumped him by a bunch of trash just north of the b6 parking area.
It's my fault. He was 9. His hearing was worse than I realized apparently.
He was trained to avoid cars, as I've lived in the city most my life.
As much as part of me would like to ring the neck of whoever did it, I can't hold that kind of hatred in my heart. LJ was a great dog. I had him for 9 great years. He was my uncle's dog but when he passed away I got him at 6 months. LJ was named after my grandfather, the initials stood for Lawrence John. But I digress.
As hard as it is, I forgive whoever shot my dog. I pray that God softens their heart. And if by some slim chance you are reading this, I pray that you would realize the pain that you have caused me. But giving pain for pain will not bring LJ back. So I beseech the only one who can do anything about this, and ask that the Lord take care of this, and take this pain from me. Because one day Jesus is going to settle all accounts, and I'll know then what happened.
I don't know if dogs go to heaven. But I know there's at least one horse up there because Jesus will come back riding one according to His Word. I pray that when I get there or he calls me home, that there's a little red heeler waiting to welcome me home to that mansion Jesus has been building up there since he went to be with the Father after His ascension. But if LJ is not in heaven, I truly believe that God has something so much greater in store that it will wipe away the pain that I feel now.
I'm sorry for pulling this thread so off topic, and I hope you all have a good season.
Man. That is powerful and you clearly have a strong Faith to ask for that kind of forgiveness. Prayers up for you, brother. I know it has got to be tough. And I DO believe that All Dogs Go to Heaven!
Man, that sucks. We just lost our German Shepherd after 15 years. I know the pain you must be feeling. God bless. I don't know and can't fathom who would do such a thing.
Good luck this year y'all. Haven't been down yet for bow season. Scouted out a bunch before. Heading down mid October, hopefully will the scouting will pay off.
