I have spent my whole life on a farm and around cattle and horses. Where I come from, you will find all kinds of farm dogs. Most farmers keep them for a job, but that can be as simple as having a dog that alerts you when someone pulls into a drive, or one intimidating enough for strangers to not want to mess with your property when no one is home. When I think of a farm dog, I think of one that generally stays outdoors, and is of a medium to large breed of dog, and many many times will be a stray they have taken in because it has been dumped upon them. I don't think country folks get enough credit for the care and love they give to dumped strays because it happens over and over again. I have seen incredible bonds between farmers and their dogs.
