Members-Only Webinar: Protecting Your Livestock Guardian Dogs

By |

Many of our members use Livestock Guardian Dogs (LGDs) to protect their livestock, like poultry flocks and sheep herds. This one’s for you!
 
In this live webinar, hear from our own Senior Litigation Counsel, Suzy Israel. Suzy will discuss the ongoing assault on the use of Livestock Guardian Dogs. She has handled a number of cases for us at FTCLDF involving alleged ordinance violations against regenerative farmers using LGDs. Suzy will discuss the kinds of allegations that farmers face, and how she has been able to resolve the cases. We will also hear from a farmer who uses LGDs to discuss their importance in regenerative agriculture and our own Legal Services Specialist Christine Dzujna who will speak to pending legislation that could make the use of LGDs even more challenging.
 
In this live webinar, we will cover:
  • FTCLDF cases involving LGDs
  • Kinds of allegations that farmers who use LGDs face
  • How regenerative farmers use LGDs
  • Pending legislation concerning LGDs
