Dogs mysteriously dying hours after being walked at popular Irish beauty spot

A heartbroken mother has revealed that her family’s nine-month-old pup Harley died as a consequence of drinking water from Lough Neagh on the Antrim shoreline.

It is similar to the deaths of family pets Winnie and Milo, who also died within an hour of being walked in the same area by their families in May of last year. It is believed two other dogs have also died this year as a result, Belfast Live reported.

Claire Gillespie, who owned Harley, is demanding that environment chiefs to again look into the area after tests last year found no toxins in the water.
