Always remember that if your pet has been poisoned, contact the vet and quarantine your pet until it is better. Animals that have been infected can also infect other animals in the vicinity and as such have to be kept in seclusion.
The horrible incident has attracted a lot of social media attention where many people worldwide have responded with disgust at how criminal and savage such an act can be. The worst part of the incident was that it occurred on Christmas day December 25th. People like Tracie Farrely were appalled at the post and commented ‘What horrible individuals. They should be made to eat it. ‘Trying to poison people’s pets. What about the poor birds, squirrels, etc. that may eat it.’
Heather and Alan Andrews lost their dog Lola to the same incident in 2015 when she had consumed rat poison strewn in vale Park in Brighton.

Tracey was of course right in saying that there are sick individuals in the world who derive pleasure in harming animals. A park is a fun place for both animals and human beings and to think one crazy lunatic would scatter poison all over it is crazy. Whenever you walk your dog in a park and find something fishy or odd that has the potential to harm animals, report it to the authorities. Make the community aware of it too so that dogs in your area are safe.

Such demented lunatics responsible for the poison in the dog park should be caught and punished as criminals because this was a crime and a heinous one at that. Share this with friends and relatives who have pets so that more people are aware of such threats to pets in parks and public areas.
