livestock

Look at the horns on that bad boy!

In the past, blue-green algae have been found in the Concho River, O.H. Ivie Reservoir, Twin Buttes Reservoir, and Lake Nasworthy. Awareness is the key to preventing illness in people or death in livestock and pets.

People have strong beliefs about what should happen once a dog is declared legally dangerous. Some think the dog should be immediately put down to end the threat to innocent people, other dogs, and livestock. Others believe that the dog should have a chance to rehabilitate. Texas law gives dangerous dogs a lot of leeway.

For someone like me who knows nothing about farming, "hot tub" is the first thing that always came to mind when I saw one of those large metal livestock water troughs at Palmer Feed and Supply here in San Angelo Some of them can hold 300 gallons and would be big enough for at least eight or ten people.
