I have a problem with this scenario. It sounds like the owner was aware that the gator was at the pond or, if not there at that moment, at least had the tendency to hang around the pond, and yet he let his dog run around loose. Now some Florida wildlife is dead because of his irresponsibility to his pet (not to mention his breaking of the leash laws), and he's going to make this into a trophy killing on display in his lanai? Maybe there's more to this story, but I'm not liking it as reported.
