The owner's are liable but more than likely do not have the funds to pay a $7K deal. Her home owners insurance should have a clause to cover this in it. I have had livestock damaged by dogs in the past and if we found the owners their home owners insurance paid me for the damages.
As for the county pay anything out. Well that would vary widely from state to state and I would bet even county to county. It all is how the local laws are written and enforced.
In many places livestock owners are out in the cold. Many states are changing fence and general liability laws to where the livestock owners are on their own.
I just had a round with the county here about my cattle getting out the counties half of the fence after some hunters cut the fence.(fence is around county owned nature area) I had cattle injured and the county had building that was under construction destroyed.
The supervisors where trying to have my insurance pay everything. Then my insurance company brought out the big gun lawyers. We settled that they paid for their building and I was out any cost to the cattle. We both agreed to build a new fence come spring. The old fence is not that old but it has been cut many times and you just can't keep it tight.
Also the DNR has set up cameras along the access to the nature area. They have arrested 4-5 poachers. They lost their weapons and vehicles plus did some jail time. The county judge kind of threw the book at them to try and get the message to others not to be doing this stuff.
