You can get an insurance policy on your dogs for a pretty reasonable price.  The reason for insuring them is if a cow or management deer gets injured by your dogs it will cover all damages up to a certain amount.  Now I know my dogs are not going to kill a cow or deer, but to some of the cattle ranchers that I have dealt with when the policy is mentioned they seem to ease up a bit.  I would also offer for them to accompany you on your first hunt so they can see how the dogs work.

Dont know if this will help you in your situation, but if property damage is what they are worried about you may want to look into it
