Dog owners warned after strange substance washes up on beaches.
I am not a veteran neither do I have passion for pets especially dogs but I care about good health in general. I see dogs(domestic) all around homes, streets and gardens and how unkept they look, how unhealthy they are too due to unhealthy foods most of them are been fed with on dailies. This dogs stray about picking on anything eatable to them and you just found out that they are eating , I mean feeding on all manner or sorts, from the bin, left overs ,etc. Most of all , they sleep out in cold and almost homeless 🦊. Why would anyone have a pet that they can’t take full responsibility of? So it was I really mean it is a saving grace I stumbled, like I always did got to see this and am sharing it and putting it to you that you can be a better kinda parent to your pets and save their ass off dangers and disease. . Dog walkers have been urged to stay watchful of their pets after unfamiliar substance began washing up on several beaches. Example of palm oil deposit.

We have received report of palm oil washing up on the beach at Kessingland. Although these reports are not verified, we would like walkers, particularly with dogs to be aware. Although it is not toxic, it is a substance which can cause illness in animals if ingested in quantity.
