A FARMER from Addingham is backing a campaign which calls for visitors to the countryside to keep their dogs under control. It’s a critical time for farmers as the spring lambing period is now well underway, meaning ewes and new born lambs are often grazing close to footpaths, which can put them at risk of dog attacks. Rural insurer NFU Mutual is concerned that the Easter break could see an influx of walkers unfamiliar with the Countryside Code and unaware of how their new dogs will behave around livestock. Martin Throup is a second-generation farmer whose family has been farming in Addingham for the last 45 years. His 900 sheep are kept across 650 acres, with footpaths across much of the land and a bridleway through the middle. While Martin says they didn’t used to suffer from dog attacks, it has become an increasing concern with incidents now happening a couple of times a year.
