Warning after Perth pet owner covered in dog's blood following pooch's glass shard injury

A warning to avoid a section of the River Tay in Perth has been re-emphasised after a pet owner became covered in blood when rushing his dog to the vet after her paw was “severed” by a shard of glass.

Phil Hull, who has had to pay £800 in vet bills so far following the incident, was on a walk with one-and-a-half-year-old cockapoo Hallie on Sunday, July 24 at the North Inch as his kids played at the park nearby.

Wandering along the path between the grass and the river Hallie sought refuge from the warm weather with a dip in the waterway by the northernmost viewing platform.
