[QUOTE="pgk, post: 7874562, member: 1371"] Just going through this at the present time. In summer we had constant problems with lambs breaking through electric fence, then lamb found with ears bitten off, escalated over a couple of weeks, lost a few lambs, reports of 2 black dogs being seen, son caught both chasing our ewes. I have had to draft mine and sons witness statement, visit neighbours to find one who had seen ewe worrying and son catching dogs, chased them down in his 4x4 til one collapsed. After twice refusing a community resolution CPS opted to offer a caution, woman refused it and matter is now court bound. Odd as she had no option but to accept it was her dogs as we had them in our kennels for some hours and only when Police called her did she realise they were out yet again. Turns out they are always out but usually travel much further, she never exercises them. We are pushing for a criminal conviction as all previous incidents she has got cheque book out but suffered no formal action. Thus my attempt to get a destruction order failed at the first hurdle. I shall be sending her a bill shortly and if unpaid she will be having a second day in court! [/QUOTE]
