A naughty Labrador who is 'mad for eggs' could have died after scoffing foam Easter decorations at a local park. Three-year-old Paco was rushed to the vets after eating the large ball which was made out of pipe cleaners and contained hard boiled eggs.
The cheeky pooch raced to the concoction after it had been rolled down a hill at Morton Park in Kilmaurs, Ayrshire. He wolfed down all the eggs – along with the foam letters.
The pipe cleaners inside the decoration, used for arts and crafts, had sharp metal rods inside which could have punctured one of Paco’s vital organs or severed one of his arteries.
