Coroner: Wild dogs killed Ga. woman, then husband

There's a problem with wild dogs in nearly every rural area near a large city. Why? Folks from the city bring their unwanted pets (and especially puppies) out here and just dump them, to fend for themselves. They have no idea that dogs are naturally social creatures, who will form packs to hunt. Sometimes my livestock. Sometimes my neighbors kids.

AP - An elderly woman killed by a pack of wild dogs had been out for a walk when she was attacked, and her husband died trying to fight off the mauling animals when he discovered the bloody scene near their rural Georgia home, authorities said Tuesday.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
