Hi,
I took my dog to Haywood Oaks 22nd sept. two days later he was fighting for his life in intensive care at a pet hospital, luckily now he is back at home and appears to be much better. Does anyone know anything about what could have caused this?
Many thanks,
D Knowles.

Hi,
We keep our horses on the fields adjacent to the Haywood Oaks Car Park (in Nottinghamshire).
We noticed some swelling on our horses faces the other day, but nothing has come of it.
Maybe this could be linked to the dogs which have been dying? Maybe the horses were not susceptible because of their size?
Many thanks,
Abi Scott.
