Caution - disturbing content.
Three female Fallow deer have been killed by an uncontrolled dog new Newick just before 17:00 GMT on Wednesday 8th February.
Debbie Ticehurst, from Town Littleworth, was walking her dogs along a public footpath when she witnessed the incident.
Quote MessageI heard a couple of dogs barking, then a man shouting ‘Luther’ which I assume was one of the dogs names. I then saw two herds of deer running in two different directions within 50 years of each other both being chased by dogs. One herd ran into the trees whilst the other went across two fields chased by a dark coloured whippet type dog, they disappeared out of sight but the barking persisted. "
Image source, East Sussex Wildlife RescueQuote MessageAs I walked back to my car I noticed the whippet dog running across the field back towards the man but then noticed two deer between two trees on the ground. One was clearly dead but the other was alive and on its back struggling, unable to get up. I was horrified and called East Sussex Wildlife Rescue straight away to get help and seek advice. As soon as I was off the phone I then noticed a third deer slighty further along the hedgerow struggling to get up too. The second dog was smaller and I think a terrier, and very vocal and the man clearly had no control over either dog.”

Chris Collinson from a deer rescue based at Chelwood Gate was on duty but had no choice but to humanely shoot the two of the deer.
