Have you noticed anyone targeting your dog?
A Red Beach family are warning other dog owners after dog roll laced with pills was thrown in their yard for their two Staffordshire bull terriers. Nearby neighbours have also noticed people trying to get their dogs attention in the middle of night.
No one is sure of the motives behind the drug-laced dog roll, but one theory by a veterinarian is that it could have been an attempt to sedate the dogs and steal them.
