Some of you know the story. Mr. Boyd has this civil case before a judge and jury and we expect a verdict today. Updates to follow. TDHA has a rep at the trial showing our support for Mr. Boyd and his great dog "Dixie". Its been three long years since Dixie was shot, and we are hoping for a good out come from the jury. Thanks, Paul T Title: Re: The "Dixie" case is before a judge and jury Post by: earlisbubba on April 13, 2011, 02:37:09 pm Man I hope that turns out favorable to the hunters. I'm hearing about way to many hunting dogs being shot lately.

I forwarded case history of another case where just that happened and the jury found for the dog owner. I wonder if his attorney even looked at the cases I sent?
