The Welsh Government does not hold figures for the number of reported dog attacks on livestock. However, we take this issue very seriously and would encourage livestock keepers to report all incidents to the police.
Animals should be protected from pain, injury and distress. This is why we introduced the Animal Welfare (Electronic Collars) (Wales) Regulations 2010 to prevent the use of electronic training/impulse collars on dogs and cats. The regulations ban the use of any collar that is capable of administering an electric shock to a dog or cat.
There are no plans to review the regulations at this time.
