Stop illegal dogs crossing the borders 4. Number of dog's allowed be household. I was gonna take matters personally and avenge this if he was my family: just wipe the lives of the owners of the dogs! Before judging me, make a judgement of what the owner said and possible results! Good reason why owners like those die painfully!!!
