Four dogs shot dead by farmer after being abandoned in Scots countryside and killing sheep
09.07.2023 - 16:49 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Four dogs have been shot dead by a farmer outside Moffat, Dumfriesshire, after the pack of animals were "abandoned" on Sunday morning and attacked and killed sheep.
Police received reports of unaccompanied hounds in the area around the town at around 8.40am on July 9. One sheep died and another was attacked by the roaming group, before four of them were gunned down.
Images shared on social media showed the dogs curled up in the middle of the B719 Greenhillstairs, north of Moffat. Local volunteers from an animal rescue group helped police to corral the remaining canines, which have been passed into the care of an animal shelter.
When police arrived at the scene, six of the dogs were sitting together in the road. The four animals which were killed are understood to have entered a field.
Cops say enquiries into how the animals came to be abandoned are ongoing. The animals are being cared for at Glencaple Canine Rescue near Dumfries.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 8.40am on Sunday, officers were made aware of a sheep being killed and another being attacked in the Moffat area after a number of dogs were found roaming unaccompanied. Four of the dogs were shot and destroyed as a result of this incident.
“Officers attended and safely secured six of the dogs who are being cared for by local kennels. Enquiries into the incident are ongoing.”
A separate statement issued by cops on social media added: "The abandoned dogs which were located near to Moffat today are now being cared for at Glencaple Canine Rescue."
Land owners have the right to shoot dogs in certain circumstances, if they are attacking or causing distress to their animals. Owners of out-of-control dogs that worry animals can be fined up to £40,000 or face up to
