One sheep that was heavily pregnant with two lambs was sadly killed during the attack.

The second sustained nasty injuries to its back resulting in costly veterinary fees.

The first is described as:

* a cross breed of white, brown and black in colour

The second is described as:

* a Lurcher-type cross with a black coat
