A dog is fighting for his life after being poisoned from a bite while playing at the park which turned his skin purple. English Bulldog Breezy, one, has just come out of emergency surgery after vets believe he was bitten by either a deadly snake or spider.
Owner Millie Batten, 23, was walking him in their local park in Surrey, as she does most days, when she believes Breezy was bitten. The next day, July 17, the pooch developed heavy swelling on his neck, and she rushed him to her vet to be looked over.
At first, the vet was happy it was nothing serious and discharged Breezy - prescribing him a course of antibiotics to combat any infection. But, two days later, Breezy's condition worsened and the swelling spread from his neck and chin to his lower body and chest.
