STANDISH, Maine — A Westbrook hunter who shot and killed a dog he said he thought was a coyote has been charged.

The Maine Warden Service says Steven Barrows, 50, was issued a summons this week on a charge of shooting a domesticated animal.

Authorities say Barrows shot the Siberian husky on the last day of deer season Saturday while hunting in Standish. Game wardens say the dog slipped out of its harness and ran into woods near its home.

The dog’s owner tells the Portland Press Herald that Barrows called to apologize but she still thinks he should lose his hunting license.

Barrows refused comment on the charge.

At least three dogs that hunters say they mistook for coyotes have been shot in Maine this season.

    CAN’T IDENTIFY IT, DON’T SHOOT IT.

    No one on this page wants to give any responsibility to the owner of a “dog at large” isn’t that a crime too? I agree, target identification is a MUST. But keeping track of a pet, is the owners responsibility….. And yes – a husky walking through the woods (not your living room) does look alot like a coyote.

  • Anonymous

    A husky can look a lot like a coyote in the woods.  Though he was wrong, he did the best he could to identify his target.  There was no reason for that dog to be there, he thought it was a coyote.

    If he gets fined for this, the owner should be fined for a “dog at large” as well.

  • Anonymous

    I suppose a husky walking through the woods does sort of look like a coyote…in the dark, from a distance. But from 15 feet? In daylight? Not even close, particularly if you’re being responsible with your target.

    Having a dog at large is the responsibility of the owner, but the greater responsibility by far lies with the person firing the weapon.

    Huskies are very strong and can very well break some chains or harnesses. I’ve had mine do that in the past. That being said, if you haven’t positively identified what you have in your sights, DO NOT SHOOT!!!!!!

    I don’t care if the guy thought it was a coyote or not, if it’s running in the woods, without an orange vest on or an owner around, the hunter should shoot it. The dog doesn’t belong in the woods chasing deer.

    Forgive my ignorance because I’ve only been hunting once, but why was he shooting at what he thought was a coyote?  I enjoy game meats, and I know in many cultures certain dogs are considered a delicacy, but does anyone really like the taste of coyote?  Or was this just killing for the fun of it (which isn’t really a kind thing to do)?

  • luvGSD

    Are you saying you can shoot at whatever you want as long as it isn’t wearing orange?

  • luvGSD

    I am wondering that too.  Are hunters allowed to shoot at anything they want, and is it really open season on coyotes?  Also, are hunters required by law to wear orange or is it just common sense?

  • luvGSD

    Absolutely.  How could he say he thought it looked like a coyote when he doesn’t even seem to know what a coyote looks like?

    dogs escape, it happens, and while we all wish they would stay right there at our side instead of running off into the woods, it happens. We should all be able to feel more comfortable than we do around hunting season knowing that there is no chance we or our animals will be mistaken for something it isn’t. I can tell you that at hunting season i myself do not even feel safe out near the woods. Way too many irresponsible hunters now adays

  • Anonymous

    they didn’t say it was chasing deer, it was in the woods. it running into the woods doesn’t make it stupid either. Animals run, they run off, it happens. Having a gun, shooting a gun is a responsibility and we all need to be more responsible with it. Besides, if a dog is chasing deer, its the responsibility of the warden to take care of it, not you, nor anyone else. Shows your level of responsibility by saying just what you did.

  • Anonymous

    There is an open season on Coyotes and he could shoot one lawfully.  There is a season because they are a pest that endanger game animals, domestic animals and even people.(Really not a kind thing to do).  Hunting seasons are not limited to animals intended for consumption. Ever eat a crow or marmot?

    your admitted  ignorance should now be assuaged.

    I have a Husky but just for posterity I googled a pic of a Husky and a Coyote and pulled them up side by side.  The facial structure is completely different, the coloring is different, and they really don’t look that much alike other then they both walk on four legs.  Sorry people, but if you’re going to pull the trigger on something you need to be SURE you know your target.  And before someone on here goes on a tirade about anti-hunting, I’m an avid hunter and also have a Shepard on premises.While I shouldn’t feel as though they are in danger on private, posted property I do because of the over abundance of people out there that feel as though if they see something that’s in season they have a “right” to shoot at it no matter where it is!  And too all you people that are saying that Coyotes are doing tremendous damage to the deer population…perhaps it’s time to make sure people are properly educated before you start telling them to kill every Yote’ in sight!  What happened here is akin to a hunter shooting a moose and saying he thought it was a deer.  You wouldn’t stand for that so there’s no reason you should stand for this!

    No, I’m Ed Voyant, Clair is my sister.
    the fact remains that the dog doesn’t belong in the woods without a leash or an owner around. Dogs are mostly not stupid, owners are. Dogs like to chase deer and shouldn’t be doing so. It would be hard to shoot the owner if he’s not with the dog, so the best thing to do is shoot the dog.

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_MNTKPKZ52H6V4WY5ZT6IABBEII Ed

    Also, keep in mind that if you tie a bunch of orange aroung your mutt and let it run wild in the woods, I’ll still shoot the damn thing if it’s chasing deer, I’ll just take off the orange and hide it before I leave the dog.

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_MNTKPKZ52H6V4WY5ZT6IABBEII Ed

    Give the guy a break, he identified it then he shot it.

    It’s rather ignorant to say that. Kill the coyotes? They provide great rodent control. You talk like every coyote is out to kill deer. That is so not true. Coyotes are not responsible for the supposed lack of deer. It’s harsh winters, vehicle collisions, poaching, loss of proper habitat.

    I have more hatred for some of the dog’s owners than I have for the dogs, but you can’t shoot the owner if the dog comes onto your property and pisses on your porch or chases deer around in your back yard. You can, however shoot the dog.
    It may not be the perfect answer, but it solves the problem.
    Again, keep your damn dog where it belongs and it won’t get shot.

    Ed, I think you’re getting confused. What you will do and what is true and legal are two different things. Let me show you. From Title 12 of the Maine Revised Statutes. Let me also explain it to you. A person must report a dog who is chasing killing or wounding a moose or deer to a warden. The owner is then given written notice of this act. After the owner has been provided this notice, the dog may be shot for committing this act, however, the person shooting the dog, would have to know that the owner had been served with this notice. You cannot (legally)just simply shoot a dog for being on your property and chasing a deer. The fact that these hunters who have killed dogs this year are going to court shows it is illegal to just shoot a dog. Now, you may CHOOSE to do this, but your choosing to commit a 1)heinous and 2)illegal act does not make my statement above about it being illegal any less true.
    6. Dogs.  This subsection applies to nuisance dogs.

    A. A game warden may kill a dog outside the enclosure or immediate care of its owner or keeper when the game warden finds that
    dog:

    (1) Chasing, killing, wounding or pursuing a moose or deer at any time;

    (2) Chasing, killing, wounding or pursuing any other wild animal in closed season; or

    (3) Worrying, wounding or killing a domestic animal, livestock or poultry. [2003, c. 614, §9 (AFF); 2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §243 (AMD); 2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §422 (AFF).]

    B.
    An owner of domestic animals, livestock or poultry, a member of the
    owner’s family or a person to whom is entrusted the
    custody of domestic livestock or poultry may kill any
    dog killing or attacking the domestic animals, livestock or poultry. [2003, c. 414, Pt. A, §2 (NEW); 2003, c. 614, §9 (AFF).]

    C. A person having evidence of a dog chasing, killing, wounding or pursuing moose or deer or any other wild animal in closed
    season may present that evidence to the commissioner or any game warden.

    (1) The commissioner or game warden shall give notice in writing to the owner or keeper of the dog, stating the acts committed
    by the dog.

    (2) After the owner
    or keeper of the dog has received written notice that the dog has
    committed any act prohibited by paragraphs
    E-1, E-2, F and G, anyone may kill the dog when it
    is found committing any of those prohibited acts. [2003, c. 614, §9 (AFF); 2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §243 (AMD); 2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §422 (AFF).]

    D.
    [2003, c. 552, §14 (RP); 2003, c. 552, §15 (AFF); 2003, c. 614, §9 (AFF); 2003, c. 655, Pt. C, §§2, 6 (AFF).]

    E.
    [2003, c. 614, §9 (AFF); 2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §243 (RP); 2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §422 (AFF).]

    E-1.
    Except as provided in paragraphs F and G, the owner or keeper of a
    dog is in violation of this paragraph if that owner’s
    or keeper’s bird dog, retrieving dog or hound dog is
    found killing or wounding a moose, deer or wild turkey during a period
    in which it is lawful to train dogs, as provided for
    in section 12051, subsection 1, while the dog is at a licensed dog
    training
    area or at a licensed trial for retrieving dogs.

    (1) A person who violates this paragraph commits a civil violation for which a fine of not less than $100 nor more than
    $500 may be adjudged.

    (2) A person who violates this paragraph after having been adjudicated as having committed 3 or more civil violations under
    this Part within the previous 5-year period commits a Class E crime. [2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §243 (NEW); 2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §422 (AFF).]

    E-2.
    Except as provided in paragraphs F and G, the owner or keeper of a
    dog is in violation of this paragraph if that owner or
    keeper has been notified under paragraph C and that
    owner or keeper permits any dog mentioned in the notice to leave the
    owner’s
    or keeper’s immediate control.

    (1) A person who violates this paragraph commits a civil violation for which a fine of not less than $100 nor more than
    $500 may be adjudged.

    (2) A person who violates this paragraph after having been adjudicated as having committed 3 or more civil violations under
    this Part within the previous 5-year period commits a Class E crime. [2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §243 (NEW); 2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §422 (AFF).]

    F. The owner or keeper of a dog is in violation of this paragraph if that owner’s or keeper’s dog is found chasing or pursuing
    a moose, deer or wild turkey at any time or any other wild animal in closed season.

    (1) A person who violates this paragraph commits a civil violation for which a fine of not less than $100 nor more than
    $500 may be adjudged.

    (2) A person who violates this paragraph after having been adjudicated as having committed 3 or more civil violations under
    this Part within the previous 5-year period commits a Class E crime. [2003, c. 614, §9 (AFF); 2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §243 (AMD); 2003, c. 655, Pt. B, §422 (AFF).]

    G. The owner or keeper of a dog is in violation of this paragraph if that owner’s or keeper’s dog is found killing or wounding
    a moose, deer or wild turkey at any time or any other wild animal in closed season.

    (1) A person who violates this paragraph commits a civil violation for which a fine of not less than $500 nor more than
    $1,000 may be adjudged.

    So a coyote or a dog may or may not be chasing a deer,  is that going to wipe out the entire whitetail population?  Bozos like this give responsible hunters a bad name.

    Deer don’t seem particularly perturbed about much of anything, witness the huge deer  population explosion in my parents’ suburban neighborhood, despite the fact that every evening you can hear coyotes gearing up for the hunt and the neighborhood is full of dogs. It’s almost impossible to scare the deer  away from the flowerbeds; you can practically walk up and smack them on the nose.  You could bag your limit from my parents’ living room while holding a beer in the other hand and sitting on the couch.

    I have four noisy dogs, all kept contained within our large fenced yard or with me on leash, and the deer wander around here constantly.

    There’s no excuse for shooting a dog unless it’s actively attacking a human. As for “coyotes are destroying the deer population…”  Frustrated hunters are just looking for an excuse to shoot something. Can’t track a deer? Shoot a “coyote.”

As a husky owner myself, last I checked, my BLUE eyed husky does not look anything like a mangy, disgusting coyote!  Nice try, Mr. Barrows for trying to cover your heartless act up. Not gonna fly! Also,  dogs get lose from time to time, it’s bound to happen and with this specific breed, it is VERY difficult to get them to come back on command due to their high prey drive. If you KNEW anything about the breed, you wouldn’t be so easy to throw these accusations around. What you are saying Ed, Claire & Dlbrt, is plain heartless and stupid. If you had a heart at all and cared for dogs, you wouldn’t say any of this. Now, instead of being complete pricks, have some compassion for the family that actually lost a family member.
