Dog injured by two wolves

TWISP — Wildlife officials say a bulldog was injured by two wolves outside its home west of Twisp Tuesday morning.

The incident was not likely an actual attack, but an effort to get the bulldog to submit, said Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife Sgt. Dan Christensen.

I wonder if the wolf that "attacked" Steives dog last spring was just trying to get her to submit also? Or was that an attack? I suppose if you shoot one of WDFW's wolves while it is trying to kill one of your pets, their answer will now be the wolf/wolves didn't mean any harm, they just need more submission from your animals.

How stupid will WDFW's excuses become?

It is time to "re-locate" some wolves and release them in downtown Seattle and Olympia!!

As someone who lives in Seattle, I think a couple wolf packs would go a long way in thinning out the junkies in Belltown and Capitol Hill.

If anyone had to shoot a wolf to protect themselves or family, have the trial moved to Ferry County and request a jury trial. You'll be good to go......

So now theirs a "Specialist" to tell the WDFW what animals are attacking? Wow, and these are paid Gov. officials, double wow. No wonder our country has no money!!!!!

My fingers burn writing this, but on this one I have to agree with you. It's almost like they gave a veiled warning with that, "if you defend your dog, don't call us or we'll find a way to tack you to the wall for it."

I bet they did> WDFW will have hard time defending their BS lies, do to the history of wolves in ID, MT and Wyoming. But it does give a new prospective of how low they really are as they lie for their environmental friends.

Did you see Idabooners post wolfbait?

You r a sucker if you go into the woods without a gun, especially after something like that happening... Guess she is OK with having her dog killed and eaten... I'm not, nor am i as passive as this dumb broad. 

In nature it's "Survival of the fittest!"

Possible Darwin Award entry in the future?

Sounds more like WDFW stupidity, which I'm sure those who have ended up at the teeth end of wolves would or will agree with>Chomp-chomp.

I'm surprised the FW officers/specialists didn't tell her she should have had her dogs inside the house or a fenced yard.

That's what it's come to in the Methow, when something like this happens all the liberals come out screaming, you need to keep your pets and livestock fenced so a cougar or wolf can't get at them. One of them actually told me it should be considered baiting if a predator can get to your animals.

I like the idea, but what would happen if they cleaned out a bunch of junkies. You may end up with a bunch of junked up wolves. Better idea move them to Mercer Island where all the liberals live, pure wussie  protein.

It shocks me that these so called professionals will go along with a program that clearly makes them appear completely ignorant and idiotic.........its shameful.  If one of them told you that, he is a complete turd AND idiot.........not to be trusted for anything.  And these guys wonder why no one calls them for anything..........bunch of flippin drones................

Scott Fitkin who has been with WDFW/defenders of Wildlife and now CNW from the 1990's can't seem to tell what killed anything especially if it concerns wolves.

The wolf "Specialist" told Scott Fitkin that lying about wolves killing livestock/pets would only piss the public off, which is where we are today. And now we have Sgt. Dan Christensen lying to everyone who knows better.

WDFW will be the most disliked agency in WA before long. I pity the people who work there and know they only have ten years left till retirement.

Thats probably where Sgt. Dan Christensen got the idea! Wouldn't you just love to be him tonight with WA state seeing what dumb is all about?

Even if you can't technically defend your pets, you are certainly entitled to defend yourself.  Shoot the wolf attacking your pet, call your lawyer and SAY NOTHING TO WDFW or anyone else!  Its up to them to prove that you are guilty and self-defense is a legitimate legal defense.  I certainly would not tolerate a wolf attacking my dog, mule, or any other animal I own. 

As others mentioned, a jury trial in NE Wa should work out just fine    If the prosecutor gets the trial moved West however...you may be executed
