Peasant Homesteader shoots 2 dogs in 2 days, one just sheltering on her porch. Cries because of the trauma.

This is honestly insane lmao. Her wackadoodle husband missed a point blank shot on a dog sheltering in their porch. Woman blames everyone but herself.

I’m all for shooting the dogs when they are taking your stock but darn my heart felt bad that you shot the second one as it was sheltering from what sounds like a very bad storm.

A known problematic feral/stray dog sheltering from a storm is just a known problematic feral/stray dog waiting to cause more problems. I love dogs, but they are a renewable resource. Bad dogs aren't a good thing.

Nah. I think the “truce of the watering hole” in instances like this. A safe harbor in storms sort of thing. But what’s done is done.

Does this BIPOC think feral dogs are like fricking cartoon animals? If I see a known nuisance feral dog on MY porch I'm going to shoot it.

You're r-slurred too. Kick it off the porch then shoot it. It's really less about killing the dog, idgaf. But the mellow dramatic, the wind was howling, the vicious sleet came and so did my tears over dramatic bullshit is a step too far lol

I'm not going outside in the cold to confront a random dog, I'm gonna open my door, shoot it, close the door, and go on with my night. If the neighbors are able to see the corpse I'll drag it off, if not I'm leaving it there till the morning to deal with.

I'm envisioning an ENCLOSED porch. Like a porch with screen windows as many country style homes (throughout the midwest at least) have. Which is way different than just a open porch. I do think the sleet and rain would have washed it away if it was open, which is way different in my mind. I think of an enclosed porch as an extension of the home. Like shooting a dog in your entryway. Although it could be an open porch in which case the pageantry makes even less sense but the shooting makes sense i guess

Yeah assuming it was a screened in porch you'd be right. I was picturing a regular porch that has a roof and railings but no screen.

BUT seething at a post because you assume they have a certain type of porch is r-slurred. Idk the more I think about I still would probably just shoot the dog on a screened in porch too. Guess it depends on what I have on the porch.

And this doesn't even get to start the r-slurness of not even having a fence.

Okay but from a practical reason I much rather kick out a dog in the cold than clean up its blood afterwards.

I am having trouble tracking why this redditor is wrong here. Was it shooting the dog in the first place, shooting it on her porch, or just writing about it with language inappropriate to the situation?

Mostly the language, and the porch in general. Just kick it off the porch mccarthy style and shoot it on your lawn where the DRAMATIC SLEET AND HOWLING WIND will wash it away along with your guilt.
