Two dogs have died within days of each other after suspected Blue Green algae poisoning at beauty spots in Aberdeenshire.
The first pet died after swimming in a lake at Haddo Country Park last week. The incident sparked an urgent warning to keep dogs on a lead in the area. Toxic algae has never been found at Haddo House before but the water will be tested and reported to SEPA.
In a statement, the country park said they were saddened by the news and sent their heartfelt condolences to the owners.
