Sophie’s story
“We were try to pass on a path, with cows on either side of the path, giving them space. One of the cows charged at one member of the group, headbutting him repeatedly and headbutting and trampling the dog. Once he had passed we thought this had ended as the cow turned back away but then all of a sudden turned round and charged at him again. Our dog was injured and we thankfully only suffered minor injuries”
We wish Sophie and her party well and hope the poor dog is ok
