Sheep worrying

CLA East member Richard Molton is urging dog owners to keep their pets under close control when walking in fields with livestock as lambing season enters full swing,

Richard, who farms in south Cambridgeshire, has had two incidents of sheep worrying this year. In one, several sheep were left with cuts and grazes following a dog attack and in the other, pregnant ewes had to be cut free from brambles after they fled from a dog that was running loose.
