The DSPCA is warning dog owners to take care as it is currently dealing with an outbreak of kennel cough.
The dog charity has confirmed that a number of its shelter dogs currently have the highly contagious respiratory virus, and that they need more foster homes to come forward to help.
Kennel cough is a highly contagious respiratory illness affecting dogs that can be spread where large amounts of dogs gather, including at parks, boarding and kennel facilities, and at dog training groups.
