**New Livestock Protection Laws – From March 2026**
Stronger laws are coming into force to better protect farm animals and support rural communities. These changes introduce tougher penalties and expanded police powers to help prevent livestock worrying.

It is now an offence if a dog:

Attacks livestock

Chases, stalks, or frightens animals

Causes stress, injury, death, miscarriage, or loss of produce
👉 A dog does NOT need to make physical contact for an offence to occur.

The law protects a wide range of animals, including:
🐑 Sheep
🐄 Cattle (cows, bulls, calves)
🐐 Goats
🐖 Pigs
🐎 Horses
🦃 Poultry (chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese)
🦙 Alpacas and llamas

These protections apply on farmland and on public footpaths or roads where livestock are present.

Under the updated law, police can now:

Seize dogs involved in livestock worrying

Enter premises with a warrant

Collect DNA and other evidence

Recover costs from offenders

Issue unlimited fines through the courts

Dog owners — here’s what you need to do:
✅ Keep your dog under close control near livestock
✅ Always use a lead in fields with animals
✅ Remember that public rights of way are included

It’s your dog. Your responsibility.

What do you think of this ne legislation?
