Hello! Vancouver! :roll:
Yup, the big problem is that I live on one of the last huge acreages available in our area ( 10 acres, LOL) So everyone dumps everything from boxes of kittens to Pitbulls to their stupid drunk teenagers ( don't even get me started on the dip that got drunk , fell out of her own car and came to my door at 3 am to call an ambulance !!!) to hazmat teams and cars exploding. It really is quite bizarre! I even had a young teen show up on my door with suitcases asking me to call a cab. Of course it is always like 2 am. You almost pee yourself when someone knocks on your door......

Go ahead, stick up for your malfunctioning methods. :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Well, at least once you perfect it, then we can steal it and claim it for our own!
JB how about East river? Vancouver is like East river even though it is west of us. Sask. and Alberta have brand laws every bit as good as yours. The CCIA program works for disease tracking. Saved our butts during BSE.

Yup, brand inspection found the ones in this country in about half a day that came down here.
Just cuz them people east of the river don't want to simplify their lives with brand inspection, is their problem, not mine. :wink:
Looks like the best system would do both jobs.

Perhaps the duress could be alleviated or even reversed if you were to adopt a slightly more formidable approach, and make them pee themselves! As follows -
A few weeks ago, a column in our farm paper had me doubled up laughing. The writer was describing a very rugged, talented and ambitious young neighbour of his who he thought would make an ideal, "git 'er done" politician. But the guy had a few rough edges that could prove to be a bit of a hindrance on the campaign trail.
Like the time that the "candidate" and a bunch of his farming buddies threw a bit of a house party and ordered in pizza.
When the pizza delivery boy arrived at the door, the the host flings the door open, dressed in bib overalls with one strap hanging loose, shirtless, and a shotgun thrown over one shoulder.
He growls out at the startled boy, "Are you the pizza delivery boy, or are you my date?" :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:
What a visual! :shock:

I understand that Mrs Greg. and it's probably a good idea. But it looks like they could find an owner of a calf in just moments and notify them of a loss and where the calf is.
Don't they have a number Pookie could call and imform them of said calf with such and such a numbered tag?
Seems to me like common sense.
As for someone coming to check the health of my cattle, they are more than welcome.
Just watch out for snales while you are WALKING AFOOT around my pastures, and maybe kind of watch out for a couple of them cows. :wink:
:twisted:
I don't really know how things work in Judiths area,around here if we find or lose an animal we call the local brand inspector and our Vet clinic.
Just before we left for our Tofino holiday,a Appy showed up at our place,friendly as all get out,greg walked him into our corral,put a bale in and proceded to call everyone in our area we knew that had horses,his brother the Appy breeder,and the Vet clinic. About four days later a guy from 40 miles away called and talked to our daughter,it was his horse and was he relieved. The vet clinic had givin him our name and number after he called them as a last resort.
I totally support the confidentiality of our ID system,after seeing the devastated couple of our second confirmed BSE,being interviewed on T.V :evil:

Have only had 3 calves show up here and we found there home real fast.. Had about 30 feeders in the corn once but their owner told us about them before we had to tell the renter.. Always fun trying to round up cattle in 9 foot tall corn.. You would drive by and their little heads would peak out through the rows, made me laugh just a bit.. Can't recall how he ever got them rounded up.. Had an Amish couple ocne stop off looking for some missing ones.. Wonder where they found them.. Around here you call vets and neighbors but mostly neighbors as thef olks with cattle are few and far between we tend to help each other out pretty fast, whether it is rounding up some nutty arse Saler bull or helping with some weaners that got out..
