And to reinforce the 'cows and dogs don't mix' statement as an absolute fact you can find an even more distressing account in tonght's (22/06/09) Sheffield Star, page 6; "Woman dies in trample horror".

She paid the ultimate price for walking her spaniel and collie on the lead with cattle in the vicinity.

My sympathies to her friends and family.
