Dog owners could be putting their pets at risk if they regularly feed them a certain type of raw meat, researchers have warned.
Testing conducted by Cambridge University revealed dangerously high levels of lead in dog food products being sold in the UK.
Although lead shot can be legally used for hunting pheasant, researchers found 77% of samples had lead concentrations exceeding the maximum residue level (MRL) permitted in animal feed when they analysed 90 samples taken from three raw pheasant dog food products bought in the UK.
