“Harsh reality of nature of nature upsets arrogant luvvie” be a more appropriate headline.

It’s not an accident, it’s a situation caused entirely by an ignorant, arrogant dog owner that will pass without him suffering any consequences of his actions because he’s “sad” and was the first one to start crying.

According to recorded statistics on dog attacks there would be a line ten miles long of dead sheep every year if they were laid end to end. The government stat's don't include aborted lambs, sheep attacked but saved after a vet bill, other livestock mauled or killed, deer or pets harmed by other dogs. Gladis' Law petition scope should be widened to make dogs remain on leads on all land you don't own unless the owner waives their right to expect this.

Not only that but dogs attacking and killing people and other dogs. Search Google news for "Dog attack," it's an epidemic no one can speak about for fear of upsetting this nation of "But Fido would never hurt anything" dog lovers.

Judging by the replies on various social media sites over the last few years, I've reached the conclusion that livestock are just there to provide " sport " for dog owners. We've all seen the " Fenton !! Fenton !! Jesus Crist no Fenton !!! " video, and the amusement it caused.
It's just dawning on me that the countryside ( especially in Pembs NP ) is now one big playground / free amusement park. If you dare venture onto some FB pages and moot the idea of diverting footpaths around farmyards, or tell folks to keep off crops, a sh!te storm of grief descends upon you. :eek:
