Warning to Dog Owners

[slparry]

There's a nasty bug known as Alabama Rot that if not treat soon can cause kidney failure.

Thanks Steve, I'll pass it on. Currently looking after sister in laws spaniel from hell (along with our 2 labs) and whatever else happens it has to be in one piece when she gets back in mid Feb. We have a day chart running!

"I'll pass it on...." does this mean humans can catch it??!! EEEK

Good to know, thanks.

We, too, are dog-sitting a nightmare hound - a beagle. I've never come across a dog as greedy or disobedient. Some might say the latter is down to the owners but he's as thick as a whale omelette so perhaps they just couldn't get through
