PD1964 Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 (edited) Hi, what's the score with shooting a swan? Just pulled into a mooring full of swans, my dog sat happily on the front on the boat, then suddenly surrounded by hissing pecking atacking swans? Dog worth £1000's Swans Two A Penny, now the Swans are the property of the Soverign but this is 2017 not 1617, what would happen if I shot a few of them protecting my Crufts Champion Dog???

rusty69 Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Perhaps move your boat somewhere else or shut the dog inside the boat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllanC Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Does your dog really need protecting from a few hissy swans? Does it not have teeth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeco Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 I've never met a nasty swan and if I did I don't think it would do much harm as it's not like a shark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reg Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Why not phone the police, tell them you have a gun and you want to shoot a Swan. I'm sure they will listen with compassion and tell you the legal position Please let me know how you get on with that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How, when the moorings are full of them? Swans are vicious and protective, Just wondering what would happen if you killed one protecting your dog? Would you be hanged or be-headed?? There are 1000's of swans out ther. Anyone know when someone was last prosecuted for killing the queens birds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i did have a dog, pretty sure he wouldn't be able to open it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Seem to have put yourself and your dog in the kind of territory you would expect to find swans, and want to put the blame on them. Odd attitude.

We also know you are kidding because no one on this forum would be stupid enough to pay a grand for a dog. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any progress yet with asking the police you original question? Please make sure to let them know you are a scratch golfer and you dog is a Crufts winner.
