Dogs walked off-lead may attack livestock, such as sheep, cows, pigs & hens.
Even if your dog doesn’t attack, it can cause stress to other animals.
So do keep them on a lead near livestock.
Become familiar with the #CountrysideCode .

We find bikes very useful because they allow us to access places we can’t get police cars to, like country parks, fields & sea walls.
