A SUSPECTED dog attack in Canadian last week has left six sheep dead and scores more seriously injured.Scott Carter said he woke up on Friday morning to find half a dozen of his sheep dead at his property at Elsworth Street East.Mr Carter said the attack was the second time his flock had been attacked by dogs.“We started with 60 sheep about four years ago and ended up with two,” he said.“They (the sheep) are an easy target because they come up every night to get fed.“They’re more like pets to us.”Mr Carter, who works and lives at the property, said one of his employees alerted him to the grisly discovery on Friday.Daniel Taylor said his suspicions were raised when he noticed trails of wool scattered across the ground.“I followed the trail and found one sheep on its side and she was still alive,” Mr Taylor said.“She looked like she’d been there for a while and was a bit unstable on her feet.“Then I found another one also on its side.“I went inside and told Scott and he said, ‘You better find the rest of them’.”Mr Carter said he did not know what animal had attacked the sheep, but believed it was a pack of dogs.He said he had contacted Ballarat City Council about the incident but was frustrated by their response. “It shouldn’t be my responsibility to look after other people’s dogs,” he said.“Last time this happened, council fined them (the dog owners) $300 and gave the dogs back to the owners.”Mr Carter’s partner Hannah Taylor said the violent nature of the attack was disturbing.“It’s scary to think that they can do that to the sheep when there’s little children around,” she said.
