A warning has been issued following reports of a dog attack in Herefordshire.

In a post to Fownhope residents, local resident Peter said:

From Peter Day –

“A message for all dog walkers. Over the weekend our beagle (Ruby) was attacked by two German shepherds on the lower field beside the river.

“They were with two men who seemed to have no control over them, but fortunately Ruby jumped into the river and they didn’t follow.

“It’s rare that this sort of thing happens on the field, but it was a serious bite and it could have been much worse-keep your eyes open.”
