Tragic death
“Kiwi” poisoned: “Herrl” warns dog owners
"Kiwi" survived a bait, but now the purebred German shepherd was no longer able to withstand a new poison mixture: his fate should serve as a warning to all pet owners.
The drama began a year and a half ago. A "gentleman" from the Jennersdorf district was horrified to discover that his dog "Kiwi" was suffering from symptoms of poisoning. It was suspected that an unknown perpetrator had thrown a bait over the fence into the family's garden. The four-legged friend only just survived. "My dog suffered severe liver damage. He has been under veterinary care ever since," recalls his owner.
Second poison bait caught
Now "Kiwi" may have fallen into the trap again. It is suspected that the nine-year-old four-legged friend has caught another poison bait. This time, however, the dog was no longer able to withstand the enormous strain, the dose was apparently too much. After a long ordeal, the faithful companion perished miserably.
Mourning for "Kiwi"
The vet, who had tried everything to save the four-legged patient, finally had to put him to sleep. "That's terrible. 'Kiwi' was a member of our family. Everyone had taken him to their hearts," says "Herrl" on the verge of tears. The devastating fate of his dog should be a warning to everyone.
The owner takes this tragic loss as an opportunity to remind animal lovers of the insidious evil of poison bait: "Keep your eyes open as much as possible! Danger lurks everywhere."
See a vet if you notice symptoms
According to experts, the three most common baits include rat poison, slug pellets, a sweet-tasting powder, and sharp objects such as nails and razor blades hidden in leftover sausage or meatballs. "The first signs of poisoning can be symptoms such as restlessness, cramps and trembling. It is best to consult a vet quickly," advise veterinarians. Ideally, evidence can be secured - report it!
