Police have launched an appeal for information after two sheep were seriously injured in a suspected dog attack in Rotherham earlier this week, with one having to be put down.
The family pets were attacked in a field in Wentworth in the early hours of the morning on Wednesday (February 5).
One had to be put to sleep due to the extent of injuries to its face, while the other is now recovering from 'significant wounds'.
Anyone who may know anything about what happened is being urged to contact South Yorkshire Police on 101.
