An urgent appeal has gone out to dog owners in the Ramsey area after three sheep were killed yesterday in what police are describing as a frenzied attack.
A dog described as a black collie/Doberman cross with pointed ears, was seen attacking the animals in the Glen Auldyn/Crossags area at around 3.40pm.
Police believe it could be the same dog which killed a number of sheep in the same area last week.
They say the dog could be regularly walked in the Glen Elfin area or it could be escaping from a nearby address.
Acting Sergeant Vinny Lund said it was a traumatic experience for both the sheep and the farmer:
