A DOG owner is warning others to be alert after her pet was rushed for emergency treatment after eating cannabis in a country park.
Puppy Rye was raced to the vets after becoming ill in Mugdock Country Park.
It is believed the Class B drug was left by lockdown partygoers – with vets saying they are seeing a rise in similar cases as people socialise outdoors.
Rye’s owner Leonora Belcher said: “I was at work and Rye was out with his dog walker at Mugdock Country Park.
“He was playing with other dogs in the pack in a bit of forest when the walker noticed him behaving very strangely.
“He was standing very still, his eyes had glazed over and he was really unsteady on his feet and couldn’t walk without losing his balance.
“She carried him back to her van and called me saying she didn’t know what was wrong.”
Leonora got the walker to take her puppy to her vets while she rushed straight there herself.
Rye was unsteady and disoriented and, after being seen by his own daytime vet, he was sent to Vets Now’s state-of-the-art pet…
