In the news recently there were reports of several dogs dying in Dartford, with many other dogs found to be very ill. The common link was a particular lake they may have drank water from. At the time vets were unsure what could have caused the problem and the lake was closed to the public by the Environment Agency so tests could be made. It is now thought that poisonous blue-green algae may have caused the death of the dogs.

Lexi is an 8 year old Cavalier King Charles and on Thursday evening she was out enjoying the sunshine playing in the garden. All of a sudden she spotted something and being playful and inquisitive she went to investigate. Unfortunately what she had seen was a snake and she wasn’t aware of the dangers. The snake reared up and went for her. Her owners saw the snake attack but didn’t realise she had been bitten. They got Lexi away and took a photo of the snake. Lexi’s face began to swell and they realised she must have been bitten and rushed her in to see us. She was seen as an emergency by our duty vet Josh Aldred at around 6.30pm.
