**WARNING TO DOG OWNERS**

PLEASE SHARE!

Large number of possible water hemlock roots seen this morning washed up on the shore in Ardrishaig.
These are extremely poisonous if eaten by dogs, causing rapid onset seizures which are usually fatal.

They commonly wash up after storms and periods of high rainfall as they wash down streams.

Please keep all dogs away from these areas, as they can be attracted by their carrot like smell and taste!

Photos attached of location and close up of the plants for identification. The leaves are wilted but the roots look like parsnips.

And now to meet some of the rest of the team.....

Katie and Brodie both started on reception in mid November.

Hi I'm Katie Naylor. I moved to Argyll three years ago to be near my family, having grown up visiting them from a young age. I have three dogs at home and can often be seen walking them along the canal in Ardrishaig or down on the shore. My mini Labradoodle is also my home hearing dog who alerts me to the door and other alarms so I don't miss anything, although this can mean she's a little noisy sometimes 🫤 I enjoy taking the youngest pup 🐶 to local training classes so you may see me there with my Golden Retriever. My other interests are swimming, keep fit, spending time with my family and of course Strictly 💃 of a weekend!

Hello I'm Brodie Crawford and I'm from Furnace. I graduated this year from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland studying Traditional Music 🎼 and recently moved back home to live on our family farm. I've grown up on the farm constantly around animals, helping my Dad as well as having my own horses 🐴 When I came home I knew I wanted to do some sort of work with animals and I couldn't think of anything better than at Dalriada Vets. I have only just started working at the front desk but I am excited to learn a lot more than I have already and to see you all!
