You are very correct Wise. Even back then I had to plant some high growing tight fitting type shrubbery to block the view of mine. Unless one stays very under ground, competes in some dog shows. Have equipment on your home site for weight dog pulling events. Or if able do some hog hunting with all the equipment needed for that.

One may have a hard time explaining their position for having a kennel of bull dogs with a Jenny, Round Table, slat mill etc. with nothing to show for having such equipment. The Dog Felony law passed in S.C. clearly states if someone accuses you and takes you to court. You really have very little recourse and are considered guilty and must prove your innocence. You were considered guilty by association of having the equipment. Dogs on chain set ups, break sticks and dogs with scars was considered probable cause by the H.S. Who used the long arm of the law to persecute a dog man.

The Deer, Fox, Coon, Duck, Bird, Rabbit hunters, Rodeo, and even many Game Cock people thought it was all funny. I reminded them that after we sink. Their little boats will be the next ones to be shot at. Was not long after the felony law was passed that the S.C. Lt. Governor set up a swat team to search, and apprehend any game dog or game chicken persons. Was a down hill ride from then on. Cheers
