Wales - South Wales Police

A farmer has spoken of her devastation after 10 of her lambs were found savaged to death by dogs. Anthea Davies from Vale of Glamorgan made the grisly discovery on Monday morning and posted a photo on social media to warn locals of the dangers of letting dogs off their leashes near livestock.
The animals, which were about a month old, were being kept in a field not far from the farmyard at the time of the attack. "Everything was fine on Sunday evening (April 10) but Monday morning was a bit of a shocker," said Anthea.
