Farmer's reminder in light of dog attacks
Dogwalkers are being reminded that, no matter how good their pet's recall, a lead should always be used when you're walking near sheep.
It's the time of year when many ewes around the Island are pregnant, with lambs due any moment.
Will Cain is a dairy farmer at Glendown Farm, which keeps sheep at the Chasms.
He told Manx Radio there can be many consequences of a dog attack:
