'Keep dogs away from livestock'

Lamb near Crosby put down

A young sheep farmer is appealing to dog owners to keep their pets on a lead during the lambing season.

Aalish Creer posted some harrowing pictures on social media of a newly-born lamb which suffered severe injuries and had to be put down.

The farmland backs on to Archallagan Plantation - a popular spot for dog walkers.

Aalish says it's important to highlight the issue of sheep worrying in the hope of preventing a further incident:-
