[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3942638, member: 26737"] I guess it depends on how you define doing much. A friend's dad had trouble with some homeowners in a newly-built subdivision next to his ranch; they just couldn't believe that sweet, lovable Fluffy would become a cold-blooded killer when she started running with other dogs from the neighborhood, so they wouldn't do anything to curb their dogs' wanderings. Then one day the dogs started killing calves and, quite predictably, those dogs started getting shot. Then the homeowners decided to take action--they got together and called the sheriff. He called a meeting with the homeowners and the affected ranchers, with the homeowners very vocally wanting the ranchers arrested. This lasted until the sheriff explained the laws in Oklahoma regarding protecting livestock and asked one very pertinent question of the ranchers: what was the cash value of those dead calves? That got their attention, and it got them to curtail the activities of their dogs. In that case, at least, the sheriff got the problem resolved. [/QUOTE]
