Narrative:

Upon landing and subsequent rollout on runway 19 at I43 (jackson county. James a rhodes) I encountered two small dogs walking on the runway. One dog was near the centerline and I had to use excessive braking and evasive action to avoid striking the animal. I estimate my speed at 40-50 knots when making visual contact with the dogs. Positive control was maintained throughout the maneuver. A piper twin-comanche was on a 2-mile final behind me; and I radioed to warn of the animals on the runway. To my knowledge; the pilot of the twin aircraft did not encounter the animals.I believe the animals are domesticated. According to this airport's regulation; all animals should be leashed or caged while on airport property.
