Has your dog fallen ill after walking at Otamatea?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whanganui dog walkers who use the Otamatea Reserve say they should be told what happened to the dog that died after walking in the popular park.

The Whanganui District Council has been warning dog owners to keep pets away from Otamatea Reserve or at least on a leash, after the dog died of unknown causes following a visit to the area. The dog had been sent to Massey University for tests but it isn't known whether the results would be made public.

The council was in contact with the owners of the dead dog and warnings had been put out. About three months ago, the Whanganui Chronicle reported several dogs had fallen ill after being walked at Otamatea Reserve.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
