Farmer speaks out after more than 100 sheep killed or injured in attacks
A farmer has called for new legislation following repeated attacks on sheep by out-of-control dogs.
West Sussex NFU chairman Caroline Harriott, who runs a flock of 600 ewes and rears lambs near Arundel, said that over the past decade she had had more than 100 sheep killed or injured in attacks.
The latest, the NFU said, was on Monday, when a professional dog walker took five dogs onto Caroline’s tenanted land near Sompting.
