Llanigraham:
Typical!!

Local farmer shot someones dog up here the other day, after they stopped to look at the view and have a cup of coffee, and let the dog out "for a little run". Not a good idea in a field of heavily pregnant ewes!!

ChrisV8:
Absolutely typical, but of course all the countryside is owned by the Ramblers so the farmer is at fault for putting his cows there anyway  :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

A farmer is I understand quite at liberty to shoot a dog worrying stock, it has happened a few times up near our cottage in Northumberland, especially when the hippy travellers were about !

Llanigraham:
Correct.
Understand they complained to the Police about it, and were told that perhaps they would like the bill for any loss of the ewes that aborted, plus the vets bill, plus the bill for disposing of the ewes and lambs!!

Nick4X4:
I know that farm as i use to work for that estate years ago.
The farm is part of Broadlands and i know that some footpaths have been closed that run through the estate,
I can see them getting all of them closed
