Farmers are legally allowed to shoot a dog to prevent livestock worrying
A pregnant sheep has died after being chased by a French bulldog in Upton Country Park. The dog was seen off the lead between 4pm on Wednesday, March 1, and 4pm on Thursday, March 2, in the park, where it chased a group of heavily pregnant ewes.
One of the sheep later died, along with its unborn triplet lambs. Its death is believed to have been due to a heart attack caused by the stress of being chased in the park, near Northampton. Police are trying to trace the man who was with the dog. He is described as white, and of European appearance.With sheep now out in the fields with their young, dog owners across the county are being reminded to keep their pets on leads and under control. .
