I know these folks. Casual acquaintance. They aren't stupid but I have to say they could have totally avoided this:

This is why we have leash laws folks. Even if you don't have time to put them on a leash you tie them out so that the dogs over powering instinct to defend it's territory only gets it eaten and doesn't put your wife, child, self, etc.... at risk! You live in bear country! Keep your critters securely tied up, penned up or in a kennel! I am a dog lover but if the choice is between risking the dog's life or a human one, sorry pooch.

Not to mention the fact that now a bear, possibly a female with cubs, faces capture and relocation (that never works) or destruction (that really isn't fair because the bruin did nothing wrong).

I hope the Moyers heal, I hope they learn from their mistake and I think Perry County needs a little enforcement of the domestic animal laws.
