Ian Galpin had to bury 33 dead sheep after a roaming dog attacked and killed the stock. Photo / SuppliedFarmer Ian Galpin had to borrow a friend's digger to carve out a hole big enough to bury 33 sheep killed by a roaming dog on his rural property. But it was on Saturday when he received a call from a neighbour who had reports of dead sheep in the creek area of the property. As the sheep tried to outrun their attacker they had run through scrub and gorse and plunged into a river. Others lay near the steam with their throats ripped out while about six were found huddled together on a ledge above the stream.
