You're only going to "get in trouble" if your dog is picked up loose and it's found that you haven't had them licensed or vaccinated. If you're found at all, as no one may know whose dog it is without tags/registration.

"How serious" in what way? For the health of your dog? For the prevention of the possible spread of Rabies? For the miniscule yearly cost of licensing? For the ability of town to get yor lost dog back to you in a timely and convenient manner?

Yes, It's serious, and for those who don't see or understand that maybe their pet would be better off living with someone who does.

Reply to comment by WhatTheCluck802 in Those of you who have laying hens, what do you do with the chicks who turn out to be roosters? Is there a local butcher who will dispatch them for a fee? I don’t mind eating them at all but don’t have any experience doing it myself and wouldn’t want to cause undue harm due to my inexperience by JMChaseArt

Yes, that's likely the most convenient and efficient way as it also contains the bird itself, much easier to work with than the old "hatchet & stump" method.

You can buy them really high quality for fairly low cost, make your own if you're at all handy. Or even, depending on your tolerance for larceny, 'procure one' during highhway construction/repair season. It hapens. ¯\_( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)_/¯

Yes. 'Stick season' is the downtime between the end of foliage season and the Christmas holidays. The leaves are going/gone but ski season is yet to start.

OP just heard a cool phrase they didn't understand and made something up. ¯\_( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)_/¯

How about real snow tires? Driving skills and good decision making?

Can you carry them too and add them on when needed?

I see plenty of low ground clearance + summer tires vehicles stuck on Vermont back roads every year. Wait until mud season and you've got a 50/50 chance of seeing one high centered in the middle of any -mud- dirt road.

Growing up in an old house we learned early to leave the doors open on the bathroom sink/vanity and the cabinet space under the kitchen sink during cold weather.

That little extra warm air flow can make a lot of difference even if the pipes are inside the wall. ¯\_( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)_/¯

Reply to Eli5....can you dig a well anywhere and hit water...and how did the early ranchers in the West know where to dig for water. Especially in the really dry areas? by pinkshrinkrn

The very early settlers settled where water was actually available, or easily accessed. Along rivers small or large lakes, anywhere that offered or indicated water. Later settlements/settlers and ranchers could take the time, energy and technology to dig, but there are a lot of environmental clues on where that would be. Lower areas and low areas with an unusual amount of long term plants like trees were usually a pretty good place to sink a well and then build a windmill to pump the water out.
