Mum's warning after puppy dies of mysterious illness days after walk in park

A family has been left heartbroken after their seven-month-old puppy died of a mysterious illness days after a walk in the park. Chloe Vickers took her sproodle puppy Oscar to Wythenshawe Park last Thursday (February 9) as she would always do, but within hours he was being sick.

Just days later, on Sunday, Oscar died at home with the family. Chloe is urgently warning other dog owners who walk on the park to be careful and watch out for the first signs of sickness.

She posted on a Wythenshawe social media group to tell her story as a warning. Manchester City Council have confirmed they have been made aware of the issue with the RSPCA urging people to contact their vets straight away if they experience something similar.
