Toxic algae in Waikanae River
Toxic Algae blooms have been detected in Waikanae River at both State Highway One and James Cooke Park this week, meaning extra caution is needed when exercising dogs in these areas. Toxic Algae is toxic to humans and can be deadly for dogs if eaten. The best thing you can do when Toxic Algae is present is keep your dog on a lead and stay out of the water. Algae is quickly dispersed and deactivated by salt water, so it’s safer to walk your dog at the beach instead of at rivers during the summer.
