EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

Only posting this on here because I know there's some guys from my area, and guys who hunt with the ones from my area, that I personally don't know so this is my best hope for them to see it. Yesterday afternoon I walked out of the house at about 2:00 to go grab dogs. Walk back and find them dead. 3 dogs laying dead and my pit was missing. Though He could have slipped his collar. Something just didn't feel right, I knew it wasn't heat stroke so I loaded the 3 up and went to the vet for a necropsy, he looked at the insides of 2 of the 3 dogs, looked me in the eyes and told me my dogs had been poisoned with a large amount of rat bait. Lungs were full of blood and liver and intestines were bleeding. There's no way they picked it up while hunting cause none of them dogs were all on the ground at one place. Someone did this, and whether it was a neighbor, an individual I pissed off, or another dogger whose toes I stepped on I don't know. But people talk and that's why I'm posting this. Somebody robbed me of my hard work, pride and joy, being those dogs. So IF ANYONE, might have any information worth knowing, I ask that you either contact me or Schulenburg Police Department as I've filed a report with them. I'm offering $500 to anyone with information that leads to the prosecution of the sorry sob who did this. 5129889652 is my number, please if you hear anything let me or the PD know (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160702/2b29dfb2626fffeb39eb56c1f594bd3d.jpg)

Damn man that really sucks! Hope there is a special place in hell for whoever did this. Was that black pup out of my dog one of them?

No sir, luckily Pancho was with me all Thursday night. I got him and 4 young pups still.

Glad to hear pancho is ok but still sucks to hear about your other dogs. I haves couple puppies left out of a litters and have another litter on the way should be here end of this month. Both of these litters should make some good ones. The litter due end of this month is out of same male as pancho and a tator/tweety/Winchester gyp. Let me know if you are interested.

Hate to hear that Slim. Hope they catch the slime that did this & they are prosecuted.

Thanks guys for the kind words. It sure ain't no fun.... Took a week off from work to come tear some hogs ass up after being on the road for a month. And now I'm itching to go but there's no use cause all I got is a 10 month old pup who has struck a hog and my buddy has a gyp that's starting to come on... Went last night with a buddy and it was kind of depressing to not see my dogs out there milling around.

CRC, I really like Pancho and I've heard plenty good things about boomer, and that that gyp sounds like she's got some proven blood behind her. Let me know something for sure on that litter, might have to claim a female or 2

That down right nasty some one would do that. They must of crawled out of a mud hole some where. I hope you get them

Man I'm sure sorry for your loss... that's as sorry as sorry gets. I hope you find out who did this.

Keep us posted as the case develops please. I do t know how someone can be so sorry as to do that to a  fella and his  dogs.

Wow I hate to hear this .. I've really enjoyed watching you post on here all your progress and work paying off . I would go to whatever local feed store y'all have and ask if anyone bought rat poison bragging about how it's intended for killing dogs. Dog killers usually brag to people about that stuff .. You ever get on a deer hunting forum they talk about it like it all the time.

My family had a line of coon hounds whipped out by a crazy neighbor that feed them all glass . It takes a sorry ass person to pull something as cowardly as that . I sure hope they have what's coming to them

Sorry about your loss
Take care

I'm resilient, too damn hard headed, and I love dogs and hate hogs all too much to quit or give up. Chris I assure you my progress will continue, it will be a couple months before I'm back to catching hogs, and it's gonna cost a couple pretty pennies to recoup my losses. But I got a few good doggin buddies, my dad, and my self in my corner. Got a pair of young puppies  bred right, real stock minded that I'm waiting to grow up. And 1 that's 10 months old and is acting like he's gonna make a hell of a dog.  I'm gonna give it a little, do my due diligence to try and get to the bottom of this rough situation, and then start building a pack again.

I think the toughest thing about this is I'm really not all that worried about restitution or getting paid back. I just want to look whoever did it in the eye and ask them why? Ain't no mutt of mine ever bothered nothing but a pig and the occasional armadillo. My dad brought it up to me and it still is eating me alive and it's gonna for a while, because he was right. It takes a sick, twisted, unstable, no moral having piece of trash to bring themselves to be able to take a mans not 1 but 3 best friends from him.... It's scary because if they can just do that to a couple dogs I can't imagine what they could do to a child or someone around them.

Hate to break your heart. It's someone you know. Someone that knows your schedule. And someone that knows where the dogs were. Simple as that! No stranger could do that! Impossible!

Ya I think so as well.

There's about 3 people that I wouldn't put it past, that have motive of some degree, and know where my dogs are. Cops have names of all

not exactly the same thing. but some clown opened my piglet door and shot 1 of my ag pigs 2x, but he lived. then 10 days later someone around 12:-01:30 opened my main pen and my breeder boar was gone, my pet pig was walking down the county road and my neighbor ended up walker her back a 1/4 mile and put her back int he pen, and a blonde sow i was gonna breed over to my ag project and a littermate piglet to the one that got shot, were ran over. i know it tore the vehicle up, hell the sow was pushing 100-120# but nobody has stopped by to claim the damage. about a yr ago, some turd cut my pen fence. all 3 incidents were reported and all 3 times i told the deputies that if i catch them, they will have to haul them off wrapped in a body bag inside a meat wagon. all 3 times they said to let them handle it. well, i put a trail cam up and finally caught the same tck driving by real slow 2x on my cam within 3 days of each other, then while I'm waiting at the airport to go back to work fri, my son tells me that the same red dodge pulls into the driveway, but before he could get outside, the tck was backing out and left. also on the cam was a toy tundra but only caught the rear quarter fender. i told the wife to buy another cam and chain it to my trailer and set it for vid mode in hopes of catching a plate number of any vehicle that doesn't belong on my land. i can see pulling in and turning around, but using my entire circle drive to turn around is bullcrap. so between the purple paint on my fence line and the no trespassing sings put at each entry/exit point, there should be no reason anyone should be using my driveway, even to turn around. once they pass the property line, its trespassing and evidently criminal trespassing according to the state statute. so i will file on every single person who comes on my property without prior permission, especially if I'm gone or they have creeped past my land on more than one occasion. i did tell my son, which a 2 deputies told me i was within y rights to do, but i told to get my ar out of my tck, keep it by the door and if someone pulls in, to step out on the porch, show them the weapon and tell/motion for them to leave and if he feels threatened, to put them on the ground and call the cops afterwards.

back to the OP, sorry that happened to young  i hope you catch whoever did it. hunt them down, knee and elbow cap them and poison their family in front of them, all the while, them helpless to do anything about it.
as mike said, the person/s who did that are lower than low.

Sounds like you better stop pissing other hoggers off or stepping on their toes. Definitely the act of a coward, non the less. A real man would have beaten you to death, not poisoned the dogs.

I ain't back doored no one, never sold someone a dog or a pup claiming it was something it wasn't, and never went around talkin number 2 about people or their dogs.... I'm not quite sure how to take your comment, but this ain't something I've had coming or anything. This is simply a cowardly act carried out by a twisted individual for what reason I can't imagine. Only thing I can say I've done is hunt a place I was invited to come hunt by the land owner who led me to believe I was the only one who had permission to run it. Come to find out he's got some boys from Colombus and sealy area that run it as well. But none of them boys know me as far as I'm aware and I know for a fact they don't know where I keep my dogs

A real man would have beaten him to death over something as simple as "stepping on their toes?" That's absolutely moronic. That wouldn't make anyone a man at all but more like a child with lack of emotional control or any sense of maturity or morality. This is supposed to be an enjoyable sport/lifestyle that brings people together with a comman interest. Killing people or their dogs over it is just total BS. Sorry this happened to you Slim, nothing you could've done short of killing their dogs first could have made you deserve this.

100% agree Mr. Oinker. And like i said I do my best to mind my P's and Q's, and couldn't ever bring myself to intentionally harm, much less kill someone else's dogs. I know how much mine mean to me and I wouldn't ever want anyone to know the kind of pain this has caused me.

I'd like to compliment the dogging community as a whole, since people have learned of what happened, just about anyone I've already had dog dealings with has messaged me or called me to extend their condolences, and let know know if I need anything at all to call them. Even had a guy I've met one time when my buddy went and picked a pup up from him, message me and told me when ever I'm ready to start rebuilding, call him cause he'll have a dog or 2 that'll find a hog I can go get and use for as long as I need. Had plenty of pups offered to me, anywhere from Bulldogs to foundation bred dogs to winchester X tweety X tater blood pup. I don't know if I'll be able to bring myself to take any of those, as I know people work too hard to have what they have and it ain't no ones fault but the man who done it that my hard work is all 6 foot under. But I really appreciate all the hands and apologies extended to me, and for the most part I definitely believe it's a hell of a group of people that enjoy our sport.

Haha. Man I looked at that note twice , I said dang this dudes name is cotton.   ;D ....didn't mean to de rail your post though. I sure hope you can get to the bottom of it.

No problem Georgia. I'm doing all I know to do. Just hope the law takes this as serious as it should be taken, but I know that's unrealistic

That's a fact

That's a bad situation, I can certainly relate, first cur dog i ever had was poisoned by a pissed off family member, I knew exactly who it was but couldn't prove it, I wanted to get them back so bad because the dog was more of a family member than a hog dog, my parents kept telling me that their day would come, now out of the 4 that was involved with it one died a slow miserable death with cancer, one has been in a car wreck and is now a vegetable living at an assisted living facility, one is living on the streets and is a junkie and the other has had to file for bankruptcy so many times he had to change his identity, I guess what I'm getting at is whether you'll ever know it or not but the good Lord with deal who ever is behind this their cards.

Appreciate the reassurance goose. And boy do I believe in sweet sweet karma. I'm not expecting to catch who did it, though I pray I do. But if I don't I know their cards will be dealt.

I can't explain the amount of support ive gotten from my friends, and just the dog community in general. I'll be back to taxin some hogs ass soon enough.

Slim...i am sorry about your dogs...it is a hard thing to lose dogs you have come to love and appreciate....

according to the posts you have written here after the what has happened to your dogs...I will say this to you...you are wiser beyond your years...

Man I'm not close to shulenburg by no means, but I do have a few dogs that aren't getting the attention they need. If you were up to making I drive I have a few I'd part with- no charge, just to help you out, bcuz I feel like you're the type of person that would do the same.

Slim I think cotton is a better name for u and hang in there man it will all come around just keep hunting it will show them that it didn't get to u


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

appreciate that offer boss hoggin, and I'll definitely keep you in mind. Just gotta make sure all my ducks are in a row before I go back to building a pack of dogs. Pwilson I'm gonna hang with it. I enjoy this dog stuff way to much to quit

Appreciate the kind words a lot Mr.Reuben. It's hard to keep a level head but huffing and puffing and beating down people's doors asking questions ain't gonna find me anything but more trouble.

But I had to post these screen shots. That last message especially makes this seem like a "we got your ass good" kinda text. I didn't do it anyone, I didn't peddle any dogs, I didn't over charge them. I sold them 3 pups and 5 weeks later they came complaining saying one of the pups died and it was my fault, but they couldn't tell me which pup died, or how it died, so I told them I couldn't help them and left it alone. And now  2-3!months later I get this bs
