The courts believed the owner when a husky dog was shot and the body disposed of in the dechetterie. The owner says the dog was normally kept in but had got out into the village. He was a real softie, family pet and would not hurt anything or anybody and children loved him.
The 80 year old man who shot him said that the dog had attacked and killed 5 goats in his fenced park. He explained to the judge he thought that type of dog was like a wolf and had the same instincts of a wolf. The bodies of the goats had mysteriously also disappeared and the man said he had disposed of them like the dog at the dechetterie. The courts say the old goat... owner should have called the gendarmes before shooting the dog and so he was found guilty with a fine. The man is going to appeal to a higher court.
I think this proves that you cannot just shoot a dog roaming but there are obviously some people who will.
