There are growing concerns from residents in Scarborough that the beach there is making dogs ill.
Leader of the Fisherman’s Association James Cole, 52, says that there has been an increase in sightings of dead animals since work has begun on expanding the port town of Teesport in North Yorkshire and a number of dogs who have walked on this part of the beach have become ill.
On January 12, a warning had been issued to pet owners after over 150 dogs became ill, all of them having recently been taken on walks on the East Coast of Scarborough, Yorkshire Live reports.
