W The SouthWest Chat


elcome to the February issue of SouthWest Horse Trader. If you are reading us for the first time, welcome. Protect the Harvest shared this on their Face-


book page. It always amazes me that non-coun- try people move to the country and then complain when they don’t understand living in the country. Sure it can be really peaceful and quiet . . . but then sometimes you wake up at 2am to coyotes howling, cows mooing and wild hogs rutting outside your window.


Right To Farm Upheld In California Livestock Guardian Dog Case


Citing Plumas County, California’s Right


To Farm Ordinance, on November 22 the Hon- orable Judge Douglas M. Prouty ruled in favor of the owners of Sheriff, a Great Pyrenees guardian dog. Sheriff’s main job is to keep bears out of his owners’ apple orchard, and barking is a natural part of that. Nevertheless, a new area resident filed a noise complaint with county officials. The county’s Right To Farm ordinance


states: “In addition to the protection afforded by California Civil Code Section 3482.5, no agri- cultural or timber operation shall be or become a nuisance, public or private, under the laws of Plumas County, including this Code, when the operations are managed or conducted in a man- ner consistent with accepted customs and stan- dards established in Plumas County, or with the best management practices established by the in- dustry.”


Guardian Dogs Essential for Livestock & Crops In Some Areas The apple orchard in question is home to 214 trees,


making it irresistible to bears and making a guardian dog es- sential to protect the crop and therefore the investment. The Great Pyrenees breed is most commonly known as a live- stock guardian dog, but is equally useful for protecting crops. Read more about Sheriff’s case at protecttheharvest.com
