A man was killed and his widow was left paralysed when they were trampled by a herd of cows as they walked their daughter's dogs during their lunch break, an inquest heard.
Michael Holmes, 57, was pronounced dead at the scene and Teresa was airlifted to hospital after the horrifying incident as they crossed a field on a public right of way with the two whippets, Neville and Luna.
He suffered 35 rib fractures and the sack of his heart was lacerated, the hearing was told.
