Trawden dog owner ordered to compensate farmer after sheep attack

Lancashire Constabulary identified the dog and its owner after a video was shared on social media.

Additionally, the dog owner has been given an order to ensure that it is kept on a lead and muzzled in public spaces.

Dylan Burrow, from Colne and West Craven police said: “This is a timely reminder that all dogs must be on leads when there is a chance that livestock may be grazing within the fields. Sheep worrying is a criminal offence that carries unlimited fines.”
