John Nilsson says it is heartbreaking seeing his sheep and lambs attacked, with those still alive by morning often having to be put down due to their injuries. The Nilssons were buoyed on Wednesday night by five local hunters, who volunteered to come onto the farm and help protect the stock from further attack. The volunteers were able to shoot dead two of the dogs early on in the night, and no stock were attacked, he said.

The sheep and lambs attacked by the packs of feral dogs are John Nilsson s pride and joy. When the volunteers had to leave, the Nilssons took over the patrol and had a group of dogs turn up at about 4am.
