I got up to a bunch of barking and my cows were mooing at 4:15 AM. I grabbed my daughter, my 357, and my 9mm then jumped in the truck. There were 6 dogs that were chasseing my cows. They had run down all the temp fences and were after a calf. I called 911 and started popping them off one by one. By the time the first cop got to us I only had 4 that had a taste of lead. One of the cows killed one and the cop got the other one.
I ended up with 2 state troopers, 3 county cops, one forest ranger, and 2 animal control cops. It took 3 hours to get the cows into a huge padlock. I had one calf down with a few skin tares and one that would not stop running till it just fell to the ground. Moved the 2 calf's to the barn and got the vet out to take care of them.
The 6 dogs had on tracking collars so we knew it would be a matter of time before the owners showed up for them. The owner showed up and had guns in there truck (crime to carry guns when on privet property to get your hunting dogs). The owner went off when he saw his dogs were dead and gave me a black eye then tried to slap my daughter.
I just got back from the jail house pressing charges on the owner. 4 days worth of grass is destroyed, the one calf died, a bunch of temp fencing stuff destroyed, and calf is full of drugs and stitches.
Sorry but I needed to b1tch about my morning and have a question. Are hunting dogs like this or was it a pack type thing that made them start chasseing my cows?
