Dog poisoning -worthing/Lancing

‎***WORTHING AREA***WARNING ALL DOG WALKERS!!
Please repost. I have just been advised by Grove Lodge Vets that some
very sick individuals are placing meat laced with antifreeze around
local dog walking parks and Brooklands in particular so dog
owners/walkers please be aware. They have seen 5 dogs at the Vets with
the same problem so far.
Also Lancing Ring dew pond. Have also heard that whoever is doing this they are lacing the water, puddles etc. with it.

Both Brooklands and The Dewpond used to be favourite dog walking spots of mine when I lived in Lancing.

Dogs were being poisoned on a beach near to us few weeks back, police were warning owners to be very careful. Thankfully it's not one we use - horrific for those that lost their dogs

OMG these are MY dog walking areas and strangely enough I was actually up at that dew pond with Lilypup last week in Lancing and went on an hour and a half walk all around the area I will warn everybody I know, so thanks a million for this.

I rang my vets only the other day to ask if there was any bug going around coz both my dogs have had diarrhea, but they said nothing is untoward at the moment only fleas and that was Grove Lodge!!!

Bladdy dispicable, we've had this before on the other side of Cissbury and 5 dogs died

Do you know any of the other local areas that are affected please Gerri? I don't do the busy dog walking ones, but of course, I'm up Cissbury every day? thanks! Worrying isn't it

Oh H, its bloody scary! Don't know where else its supposed to be. Just read on another site that its a actually a hoax. Don't know what to believe. May be worth a call to Grove Lodge as that's who is supposed to have been putting the warning out!

I find it strange that this warning is not on the Grove Lodge website if true and not in the local papers (according to my mother who lives in Lancing)?
