Nothing new in this. The killer can usually be identified by the opus operandi. This is dog for sure. Do you want some pics of sheep running arounnd with their guts hanging out?. Best cure is to get local marksman to set up a shooting table with spotlight near main road in public view. By end of the day every dogchain for sale will be sold. I know ir works. Wally

Dead right Wal, anything that kills multiple animals in one attack is usually a pack of dogs and usually well fed domestics. They kill for fun and not for food. It is natural for the dogs and is a sign of irresponsible owners. If the owners think their dog will be shot they soon take care to keep it restrained.

Yep nothing to suggest this is anything but dog. I've spent enough time sewing up dog attack victims to recognise the signs of the sheep chased into water and torn apart.

Dogs running a muck. Tough talk is all the go when evidence is presented. But I tell you, when you have a a domestic dog with a collar in your sights and a mained domestic stock victim behind it , it is not as easy as you would think to blow the pit bull cross mongrel away, particularly when you know the owner. I was confronted with this exact situation in this past Easter. Beleive me i was definitely not going to let the mongrel get out of my rifle scope vision, but i had it in my sights for about 10 minute before I had no option but to head shoot. I tried repeatedly calling over the UHF for the owners. But no answer. I tried approaching but the mongrels go wild when they rip away from their owners, and for a while the mongrel looked like it was going to go me. The monrel broke off its rudimentary strung wire run. The owner was working on our property and mate it was not a good thing to have to do it and then tell them. Followed by the Spanish inquisition...ultimately the mongrel killed and in the next paddock were 300 fleece sheep belonging to the neighbour. If it got amongst those the mongrel could have sent me broke.
In the end you have to do what you have to do, but it's like a bad tasting tablet that you know if you don't take it you will end up with one hell of a head ache later. By the way a 222 does the job ...It dropped like a sack of potatoes.

You did the owner a favour. He would have been liable for losses caused by hit mutt. Remind him of that ...

Plesio sewing up sheep!! must be a vet, Thats interesting, I need a typical dog skull to compare with my singing dog skulls, Any possibility?? One day I'll post pic on my web of a sheep with slabs of skin hanging off it. This was a cat ripping skin off and licking blood. The sheep was put down and soon after the cat was put down by means of innoculating a dead lamb with condiment. The lamb went and no more evidence of the cat.This cat killed and predated 7 market lambs in less than 15 minutes Wally
