A forward pass by Team Green hits a dog that has wandered on the field. What should be done?

Whistle the play dead and replay the down.

Shoot the dog, especially if it answers to "Smokey!"

I'll guess that you should treat the dog as part of the field. Incomplete pass.

Anyone who remembers our Citrus Bowl game against Ohio State will probably agree with me that we should let Gene Stallings take care of this!

I would guess that you would treat this like an inadvertent whistle. Since it happens during a pass, replay the down.

A couple of y'all got it - if a situation like this comes up, it is treated like a play with an inadvertznt whistle - the down is replayed.
