Warning in Napier- Dog owners
🏴☠️ Possible Cyanobacteria in the Anderson Park waterways - Please keep dogs away from the area until we give the all-clear. 🏴☠️
🐕 The Problem: Our environmental team has been called to Anderson Park to check a blue-green substance that COULD be cyanobacteria. If it is cyanobacteria, then it's potentially FATAL TO DOGS.
🐕 What we're doing about it: We'll get test results back tomorrow (Monday) morning. In the meantime we've put signs up around the area, and we've got a vacuum truck in to get rid of as much of the substance as possible.
🐕 What we're asking of you: Until we know what the substance is, we're taking a precautionary approach and assuming it is cyanobacteria. Do not let your dogs drink from or swim in the Pond near the model railway and lighthouse, or the creek next to the Anderson Park Playground.
🐕 If your dog shows any of the following signs after drinking from, or swimming or paddling in water, contact your vet IMMEDIATELY and tell them you're concerned about blue-green algae:
🔹Vomiting/being sick
🔹 Diarrhoea
🔹 Seizures/fitting
🔹 Weakness/collapse/unconsciousness
🔹 Disorientation/confusion
🔹 Drooling
🔹 Breathing difficulties
Poll: How do you feel about dogs being allowed indoors in cafes?
For most of us, seeing a friendly doggo while out and about instantly brings a smile to our faces. But how do you feel about cafes welcoming pups inside?
