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!!

The farmer is required to prove that his livestick was at risk from the dog and even then has a duty to use fireamrs safely, discharging them in the general direction of people having a picnic is not safe, so just how far had the dogs run?

The dogs were running loose in a large field that contained heavy ewes, and the shot was away from them

At the end of the day the countryside is not a playground it is a place of work and a source of livelihood to many (and food to all) and so should be treated as such.

I can't say that I'm surprised. To a lot of people a cow looks like a docile, friendly thing. I'd advise them to read a few of the James Herriot books as his experiences of dealing with grouchy cattle would be a real eye-opener!
