Org Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Man Faces Felonies in Deaths of 2 Dogs K there's no question that the guy is a putz--I'll stipulate to that. But why should anyone have to be a "farmer" to protect their livestock from dogs who are chasing and/or harassing them? I don't know if I qualify as a "farmer", but I do have sheep, goats, chickens, etc on my property. At what point (5 chickens, 10 chickens...2 sheep, 4 sheep...whatever number) do I become a "farmer" and does it become okay for me to protect my stock?
