Between 7am and 7.30am today (Thursday), a man on Main Road, Colby, disturbed a dog attacking chickens in the rear of his garden.
The dog, described as a white springer spaniel type with a black patch on its back, had entered the garden twice and killed five chickens.
An additional chicken also had to be put down. The chickens were family pets and their loss has distressed their owners.
