It doesn't say whether these were her cows or not. But there's a quote in the article that I disagree with totally......lol

quote:
People who feel threatened by cows while walking dogs should let their animals off the leash in order to put distance between themselves and their pets -- because cows are more likely to see dogs than people as a threat -- and move to the edge of the field, he said.
end quote:

They shouldn't be walkin their dogs in the pasture/field with cows. Specially if they aren't their own cows. And in the article it says she was walkin her dogs, without a leash.....then turns right around and tells other dog walkers to let their dogs off their leash if they feel threatened. LOL

I'm guessing this was a city person...who had no idea that you DON'T cross into a field that not yours....and dogs vs.cows broke out!!


My cows will attack a strange dog....but ignore ' their' dogs

Yeap....she prolly lost controll of her dogs since there wasn't a leash.....went to get her dogs back....and got trampled. By a milk cow :shock: or I guess I should say cowS.

Coulda been milkin time and she got between the milkin barn and the cows....lol

I know it's not funny, someone died. But gee whiz!
