Each year, a county commission keeps records of all claims made when dogs hurt or kill farm animals. By March 20th, the commission gives each approved claimant a payment from the county dog license fund. If there is not enough money in the fund to pay everyone fully, each claimant gets a fair share of whatever money is available.
