A close neighbour shot this dog

A topical story, would a neighbour shoot your dog?
This dog if still alive would tell you, yes he would. This 23 month old pedigree dog escaped from his clotured / fenced garden in Dept 47( Lot and Garonne)  and ran into the neighbours garden. The dog was shot by the 17 year old son of the neighbour and it was reported to have killed some chickens. The owner denies the dog did that.
We are hearing this more and more. We dog lovers feel why not take the dog home and explain it is being a nuisance rather than shooting someone's dog. I noticed yesterday with the labrador needing a home Maeva says that dog was taken in to a foster home to save it from being shot.
It is not the English way but it does seem to be an option by some of the French. Let us be honest it is only in the last few months that pets have gained a status other than as furniture.
