there is some kind of white fatty substance washing up on the beaches that is really toxic. dogs are dying from eating it.
my mate just lost his bitch after she ate some at llangenith. she was put down this morning after fighting for her life all night in the vets.

please spread the word

Perhaps they could bag it and bin it if they find any?

Aaaah, sounds nasty though.

How do you prevent dogs hoovering that up then? Muzzle?

keep and eye out and leave the beach if you spot anything suspicious. Easy to say I know but just like with kids you have to watch them all the time they are somewhere you are not in control of.
