    Makes for interesting reading as to what rules some people believe should apply to dogs. We've shot a neighbours dog before, was chasing our cattle after receiving a verbal warning from us. Although if I said that on the thread over there I would be bashed myself!:p

    One warning was giving them a fair chance to mind their dog,
    Next time lead to stop him comming back is the only way,
    Too late when they've ran cattle and sheep around til they drop

    Crazy attitudes being shown there and a complete disregard for farming livelihoods..

    The OP seemed to think that it was OK for the dog to kill the lamb as it wasn't in the field he thought it should be, what a bizarre attitude..

    We have zero tolerance round here for dogs worrying stock. Dogs that are allowed out even once to kill should be shot, no excuses no promises to keep better control, shot !

    Second shot is the warning shot ;) The amount of people who let their dogs out the door after dark is unreal.

    Did you know?
    Last 4 visits by Liverpool to Cardiff, ended in wins for Cardiff!
    In each of last four seasons, Liverpool have lost every away game, to the newly promoted teams from Championship

    Of course history would change course when a bit of my SFP was at stake!!! N

    nothing more vexxing than dogs roaming alot of owners dont understand the trouble a dog can cause to livestock and a farmers pocket but yellow card for first offence followed by doggy heaven if it happens again seems the best plan.

    I know a lad, his neighbour came in and complained about his pile of dung, he explained that their lovely pet dog was coming into his yard and bringing home lumps of dung, he asked could he move it please,

    Yer man said no problem and cool as you like hitched on the box and dumped a load at yer mans front door, told yer man that should keep the dog out of his yard and if it doesn't the gun will:D

    Hope you're flying the flag for us, serious damage done here in the past, but I'd never ask for a dog to be put down......it's the owners fault and its them that should be disciplined.
    Have lovely dogs here and they love rounding up sheep even on their own....does that mean they should be put down

    I just have the commuter series one, think the defender is more robust but I got mine on an eBay auction at ok money so didn't mind. Had to get rid of that flip cover thought it was a prick of a yoke

    Not long in from a walk around the very wild West, nothing popped as yet tonight but I spied my best crossbred ewe a little ways off on her own. Reckon I'll be hearing alarm bell around 1.30am.
