In many sections the dog nuisance
is a great detriment to the sheep in
dustry. The direct loss from severe
chasing and worrying is often not so
great as the loss that follows. Breed
ing ewes that have been badly worried
and frightened rarely, IL ever, entirely
recover. The result is usually weak
and inferior lambs at the next lambing
season, with some abortions and many
abnormal presentations Of the foetus.
In fact, many breeders OF registered
sheep consider their breeding flock al
most ruined after having been severe
ly chased by dogs. Frequently a large
number Of ewes will not breed for
some time after being chased and
badly frightened.

to match, making a very charming suit.
She has been a resident of Langdon the
