Lambs killed in dog attack

A MAYO farmer has suffered the loss of a number of sheep following a dog attack on their flock.

Two lambs were brutally killed by a dog and five other sheep were seriously injured in the attack, which occurred near Crossmolina on Tuesday.

The owner of the sheep has shared what they describe as an 'unpleasant photo' of the aftermath of the attack to highlight to dog owners the necessity to keep an eye on their dogs and to be aware of their whereabouts and activity at all times.
