[QUOTE="farmguy, post: 1477207, member: 1419"] When I was a kid, many years ago, this area had trouble with a pack of dogs running cattle. Many head were hurt as they went through fences etc. Local farmers put a notice in the paper that dogs would be shot on sight. My dad shot one, a German shepherd. Us kids were sworn to secrecy as this is farm country and you get along with your neighbors. The dog belonged to a family about 8 miles away and they went from place to place looking for their beloved dog who never left the farm. We kept mum even on the bus but interestingly this dog and others only chased cattle miles from their own home. At home the guilty dogs were no problem. Another incident was a neighbor had cattle in stanchions in his barn all chewed up. The neighbor, a full of himself individual, blamed other farmers dogs and even had some dogs killed he said he knew did the damage. Then the attacks stopped. It turns out the neighbors OWN dogs were doing the damage, he never told anyone, no apologies etc. The only reason the truth came out was his kids told us on the bus. farmguy PS just a few old memories [/QUOTE]
