On a serious note now, just 5 minutes after posting these pictures, Molly the Kangal was shot at by one of neighbours. She was in a field next to our house. The field doesn't belong to the person who shot at her and she was not causing any problem to livestock or chickens.
I rushed her into Kent Vets where she was treated. Fortunately no serious damage has been done despite having about 18 to 20 shotgun pellets, which can be seen on X-rays, now lodged inside her all down her right-hand side. Her size and the fact that she has just grown her winter coat have probably been factors in saving her life.
Needless to say, I'll be make a report to the Jandarma very soon.
The purple marks on the photo are where she's been sprayed with antiseptic.
