AN APPEAL has been launched after a sheep's throat was 'ripped open' in a livestock attack.

North Wales Police rural crime team is calling for information about the incident, which happened on Saturday at about 4.30pm in Gronant.

A police spokesman said two loose patterdale type dogs - one black and one white - were seen chasing and attacking a flock, adding: "Dolly, after some stitches, should make a recovery despite her throat being ripped open."

Anyone who has information can call police on 101 with reference number W085197.
