Dog owners are being reminded to be mindful of sheep as Spring begins.
Those walking their dogs near livestock are being urged to keep them on a lead at all times.
In recent years incidents have seen dogs causing serious injury or even death to ewes or lambs.
The public is being reminded farmers have the right to take action to protect their animals if dogs stray, and legal action can be taken against those who fail to control their pets.
