Dog hunt after sheep killings
At least four sheep are dead and a number are injured after another vicious dog attack in Flaxmere yesterday afternoon.
It is believed that two or more dogs made their way into an orchard on Portsmouth Road just after 3pm.
They then went on a killing spree leaving a number of bloody sheep in their wake.
Damage to several of the sheep was extensive, and some had crushed lower jaws which indicated the dog which attacked them was large and powerful. Police officers and animal control were called to the scene to find and destroy the dogs.
It was unclear what breed the dogs were or if they were strays.
Acting sergeant Matt Wilkinson took part in the hunt but was unable to capture the rogue canines.
"They saw the police car and scampered off," Mr Wilkinson said.
Mr Wilkinson said this was the second case of dogs mauling sheep in the past three weeks.
He confirmed four dead sheep and an unconfirmed number of injured animals.
One witness expressed their growing frustration at the frequency of these attacks. The witness said once these dogs get a taste for animal blood they need to be put down or risk further attacks.
"Owners need to take responsibility for their dogs this is happening far too often and it's not good enough."
The attack follows another incident that saw one Hawke's Bay farmer lose more than 40 sheep in a mauling last June.
It was the second time he had lost sheep in the same circumstances over three weeks.
The similarity to the previous incidents indicated the same dog or dogs may be involved and, until they were found, police said, the threat to sheep in the area was high.
