Absolutely. I Hope I never have to shoot a dog due to owner's negligence since I'm such a dog lover and understand it's not the dog's fault but either way my dog trusts me and would do anything to protect me so I return that level of trust and commitment because I'm emotionally drawn to. My dogs are a part of my small family that I would do anything for. This is why I get so mad at other dog owners who ignore leash laws because their dog is good and would never do that. Meanwhile, every dog that has ever attacked has an owner who shockingly claims they've never done that before and they never suspected it was even possible. If I had to shoot someone's dog to protect me, my wife or my dogs I would promptly holster my firearm and locate the owner for the ass kickin' of the decade for forcing me to do such a thing since it was ultimately his fault.
