Cattle killed in vicious attack

On the night of January 8, dogs viciously attacked cattle on a farm in Huntly West.
Three of the property owner's stock were attacked with two dying and one having to be put down after the dogs ripped off its ears. Waikato District Council's Animal Control Officers have impounded three dogs in relation to the attacks and investigations into the situation are continuing.

The owner, who does not wish to be named, says the problem has been going on for years and wants to put a warning out to Huntly dog owners. "Any dog found in our property between Waahi Marae, McDiarmid Crescent and Parry Street will be shot," says the property owner. more>>
