Dog-owners in a quiet Welsh village are terrified someone is going around placing rat-poison pellets on the ground, hoping to harm residents' dogs and other pets.
Their concerns come after at least one pet was rushed to a vet after eating the strange red cube pellets, scattered along a lane popular with dog-walkers in Skewen, and needed urgent medical care.
Resident Doug Lowes said he was called home from work early by his wife, after their beloved pocket American bulldog Honey ate a "little red cube" she spotted on the ground in the alley at the end of Dynevor Road in Skewen.
