Keeper shoots pet dog legally

Police have concluded that an Angus gamekeeper was within his rights to shoot a pet dog that was worrying his cattle. An investigation into the shooting of the 15-year-old collie found the gamekeeper’s actions had been “appropriate”. A Tayside police spokesman said: “Both the post-mortem and the vet’s statement noted that there was no unnecessary suffering and, as such, no offence was committed.”
