Two ducks have been killed in a dog attack in Aberfoyle.
A sheep was also worried and suffered an injury.
The incident happened at the Scottish Wool Centre, off Main Street, on Sunday afternoon.
It is understood a brown spaniel was involved.
A post in the Aberfoyle for Everyone (Scotland, UK) Facebook group described the attack as “horrific”.
It read: “The dog was not on a lead and jumped the fence into paddock.
“This attack has led to the death of 90% of our much loved display ducks and a skin injury to a display sheep.”
An update said it would serve as a reminder to keep dogs on a lead when near livestock, including ducks and hens.
