I know round here if you get permission tto hunt on a native reserve, their only rule is to shoot any dog you see on sight.
 
Over the years many northern communities have had dog problems which are best solved with bullets. In recent years we've done pretty well here, and the biggest problem is when sled dogs that are kept out of town get loose and start exploring, end up on a runway at the airport. These guys aren't normally dangerous to people and the dogs are cared for much better now than was the case years ago, but dog/aircraft interactions are not good. I remember I was going to shoot one one day, (a dog not a plane) as it had become almost a daily game of tag with these guys. You'd try to coax them into the truck for a ride home and they'd come to within a foot or so of you then run off, so my patience had run low. I see this mutt come up the side of the hill, so I let him pass, and move the truck so I can get a shot at him, he circles around, sits down and looks at me with his head cocked to one side and his tongue hanging out. "You got one chance, git in the truck!" He must of known, he jumped in the box, laid down and got a ride home. Call me grouchy, but I'm not wasting another hour of my day chasing a dog around in circles.

Wolves have been more a concern the last few years, but any that get close to town in the winter don't last long. There was a lady that put her little dog out on the step one cold dark morning, and a moment later half of her dog went one way and half the other. Folks took that as a personal affront and the wolves got a pretty good lickin. Any that survived the next few days moved out of the area. For a while it seemed that our burgeoning sled dog population here were bringing wolves close to town, but I haven't heard of dogs being lost to them now for a while.
