"Hey I've read that in some states you can get a trespassing ticket FOR YOUR DOG going across the property line.

That's right, even if you never left property you had permission to be on if your dog ran a race that went off that property, but you never left that property, they can fine you for your dog "tresspassing".

Now that's a crock right there."


Sc just passed this called the renagade hunter act.

I'm pretty sure you don't have the right to retrieve in Indiana.

I've always heard that to get in trouble for trespassing the land has to be posted. Again I don't know if there's any truth to that.

Get permission before you enter property that you do not have permission to hunt on. I have found that the best time to do this is before there is a problem. If I get permission to hunt one place I look at my platt book and contact the surrounding landowners. It goes much smoother when it is in the afternoon rather than 1230 in the morning with their dogs going nuts and all the ruckus.

The way I handle these things:

I respond to the call. If landowners won't grant permission for the hunter to retrieve his dog, I ask the owner if he is accepting responsibility for the dog. I document the answer and then advise him the average price of a broke coonhound. I have yet to meet a landowner that does not want the dog off their property.

By the way who was the C.O. on the board of directors up in Rochester, IN?

In IL you can't get in trouble for a dog getting onto someone's property, but you DO NOT have the right to retrieve without permission from the landowner. I usually do like Rowdy said and talk to surrounding landowners before hunting and tell them what I drive and where I park when hunting on neighboring properties. Then, if they hear a ruckus and want to check it out, they can just drive down the road and verify whether my truck is there or not.
If the neighboring landowner doesn't give me permission to retrieve my dog and the dog gets on his property, then I do what some others have said, leave the gun and anything else (except a lead), turn off my light and get to the dog quick and get out quick.
Maybe I'm a scaredy cat, wuss, but sure sounds better than those $375 tickets you guys are talking about.

Found this on a site (not an official government site, but a tresspass law site. Anybody know the link to the official one? Indiana is not listed there.

LOUISIANA
"Trespass is permitted in order to retrieve a dog or livestock, provided the trespasser is unarmed. Posting by landowners is required. Trespass on marshlands to trap or hunt fur bearing animals without permission is strictly prohibited."
