🚨 Beach Safety Alert for Dog Owners 🚨
We've seen 3 emergency cases this week of dogs suffering from saltwater intoxication after swallowing too much sea water while playing at the beach. 🌊🐶
While a splash in the sea can be great fun, ingesting large amounts of sea water can lead to serious health issues. Signs to watch out for include:
⚠️ Vomiting
⚠️ Diarrhoea
⚠️ Lethargy
⚠️ Loss of coordination
⚠️ Seizures
If your dog shows any of these symptoms after a beach trip, call us right away on 01983 214747.
💡 Tip: Always bring fresh water to the beach and encourage your dog to drink regularly — it helps prevent them from turning to sea water.
