If confronted by cows...

? Do be prepared for cattle to react to your presence, particularly if you are with a dog.

? Do move quickly and quietly - and if possible walk around them.

? Do keep your dog close and under proper control.

? Don't hang on to your dog if you are threatened by animals - let it go.

? Don't put yourself at risk. Find another way round and rejoin the footpath as soon as possible.

? Don't panic. Most cows will stop before they reach you. If they follow, just walk on quietly.

? Report any problems to the highway authority.
