WARNING TO DOG WALKERS
Please be advised that Badger Setts and their surrounds are now being baited with sausages, jacket potatoes and other tasty morsels to attract Badgers. Sadly it will also attract your dog. These items are being laced with Paracetamol which, if ingested by your dog in the first instance will cause D & V. If you think your dog may have been nosing around a known Badger sett or trail and develops symptoms - don't hesitate get it to a vet and mention Paracetamol. This is the latest way of destroying Badgers - other ways are the use of rat poison and strychnine. We are aware of one Labrador death already.

WARNING - STAIR/CHILD GATES CAN BE DANGEROUS TO YOUR DOG!
A young dog has just suffered serious injury as a result of a child gate and through no fault of the owners who were horrified at the injuries to their dog. It appears that he fell asleep in front of the gate and his leg was under the gate when he was woken up suddenly. He moved quickly but his leg was jammed under the gate and in his panic he has caused severe injuries to his shoulder necessitating major surgery. If your dog is in the habit of putting his paws or legs through the bars we strongly suggest you find a method whereby this cannot be done.
