Good outcome and I hope the rest of lambing went ok for you - how's Orphan Annie doing now?

That's what is so frustrating in this case. I am a dog lover and it wasn't the dogs' fault as such, but the stupidity of the owners. Such a shame.
Here's hoping that they don't get more dogs!

So sorry to hear this, hope bub is going from strength to strength. Relieved for you that they have been destroyed. Take care

Little Orphan Annie is now Enormous Orphan Annie. She's the same size as the lambs raised on their mums which we are pleased with. She'll still come over for a head rub, but isn't a pain like bottle lambs can be. She is still rather cute, I'll take a piccie later.

I am glad the lamb is doing well and that its over.

There's apparently been a big rise in sheep worrying around Biggar this year (where I live) due to a new housing estate 'displacing' dog walkers. There really is no excuse and the problem of clueless owners and untrained/unsuitable dogs will not go away soon.
