The night of 6th February 2015 was a distressing one for the farmers and sheep of Duder.Two dogs ,I believe Alsatians ,went on the rampage ,maiming and killing a number of sheep and lambs in the area.Two farmers we know had sheep and lambs killed and we hope it is limited to this.
Any farmer who hasn#t checked his stock since Saturday should do so pronto to see if they too had visitors.
I understand that one and possibly two of the dogs have been put down.
This is a recurrent problem in this area and dog owners should have their animals restrained and not let them roam free to inflict such brutality on livestock.
From past and personal experience I know only too well the carnage and misery such events cause animals and owners of the killed and maimed stock.
