"I am sorry to report that Jim Reigle, a past member and officer of the
Missouri Meat Goat Producers Assn. was found dead in his home yesterday.
(Sept. 12) Jim was single and when a neighbor hadn't seen him outside for a
couple of days, he went to check on him. The neighbor found him deceased on
the bathroom floor. It looks to be natural causes pending autopsy reports.
His only living relative, a sister, has contacted me needing to disperse his
herd of Kiko and Kiko crosses along with guardian dogs. Jim raised Anatolian
shepherds for several years and they were known as good dogs.
I don't know much about his goats, only that there are around 60, his sister and husband know nothing about goats and they need to disperse the herd. They have no
trailer or way to move them so you would need to pick them up.
Jim has had Kikos for several years.
His sister's home phone is 417-831-7341, cell is 417-693-2037 (leave a message) their names are
Cheryl and Terry Jones.
They would like to hear from anyone by Tuesday
night, otherwise they will need to round up transportation to take them to
Highlandville for the sale on Thursday night.
They would greatly appreciate any help you could offer.
OR YOU MAY CONTACT:

Kiko Goats & Anatolian guardians, Owner Died!
I have a rescued Akbash (a close relative of the Anatolian and also used in livestock guarding especially in Northern CA) and he is a wonderful dog.
There are Anatolian Rescue organizations that are very careful in placing the dogs if it comes to that.
