A grieving dog trainer is urging owners to bin their snow globes as her own pooches died just hours apart - after lapping up the liquid when one of the ornaments smashed. Caroline Osbourn had worked hard to puppy-proof her home after welcoming playful 17-week-old labrador Milo and was certain nothing could harm him or her two other dogs.
But the 46-year-old claims she heard a crash coming from her kitchen on Monday and as she rushed into the room Milo and her seven-year-old rescue dog Lexi were licking up the liquid from a photo snow globe. As she frantically tried to clean up the mess, she noticed the clear fluid felt both 'oily and sticky' and after a quick search online found the spherical trinkets often contain anti-freeze.
