Very sorry to hear about Barney and I hope he makes a swift recovery. At this stage it would be wrong to spread alarm about people going around poisoning dogs on Turnham Green. There are a million and one toxins that could potentially cause problems like this and occur naturally or could be innocently discarded by someone. If it is xylitol that could come from chewing gum. If there is a spate of similar incidents then there is cause for broader concern but it looks like you got unlucky. Unfortunately if Barney survives you would need to muzzle him when taking him out in future. A combination of a tendency to forage and a sensitivity to some unknown substance hopefully isn't fatal this time but it would be best to avoid the risk in the future. |
