Evans stated two days ago he had discovered one of his Border Collie dogs had been attacked and was bleeding from the mouth and neck. Evans stated he went to the Veterinarian and picked up some antibiotics, hoping his dog would pull through. Evans found his dog dead the morning of March 24.
Evans stated he has also had five of his sheep killed over the last few months. He also stated he did not witness any of the attacks, but did see one of the neighbor’s dogs eating one of the dead sheep.
Evans filled out a request for prosecution. Evans’ estimated loss from the dog and sheep is $3,000.
The deputy made contact with the neighbor, Brian Hearting. Hearting stated he did not know his dogs had got into a fight with one of Evans’ dogs, but did notice some blood and cuts on one of the dogs’ face.
