DOG OWNERS KIRKCALDY AREA FIFE

For now, due to the sheer amount of dogs I am hearing about with the same/similar illness i.e sickness and diarrheoa virus which goes on to aggressively attack all organs and has resulted in serious illness and death please be very careful where you walk your dog. Some cases have been reported after walking at ravenscraig park and west wemyss beach/coastal path along with other areas. This is a horrible virus and wouldn't wish it on any dog.

Remember any signs please contact your vet for advice.

JUST HEARD THAT THE ENVIRONMENT TEAM OF FIFE COUNCIL ARE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE as are the SSPCA.

We received a visit from Chic's family who handed in a donation from the funeral collection of Charlie Kane for the sum of £170.00.
