RE: ‘Cow dies in dog chase’, Bridport News, June 3rd.
The article reminded me of an incident that happened to a couple I knew and it emphasises how dangerous it is for you to allow your dog(s) to be loose in a field of cattle.
Some years ago my friends were walking through a field of cows with their two dogs off the lead.
Suddenly the cows ran towards them and they were trampled.
They lay there for over two hours until they were spotted by other walkers! Their injuries were life changing, one now in a wheelchair and the other on crutches.
