A dog owner has issued a stark warning after her Jack Tsu suddenly fell ill after being taken on a walk through a woods. Owner Lindsay Tong was walking her 10-year-old dog, called Ella, in the Tuetoes forest area of Laughton Woods, North Lincolnshire, last Thursday.
But Ella started vomiting soon after arriving home, prompting Lindsay to take her to the vets for a check up. Despite being sent home with medication, the dog's condition became worse. After being rushed back in, it was discovered the poor dog had harvest mites on her body, causing her to itch, come out in a rash, vomit, be unsteady and have an increased heart rate.
