show a strong and united front when meeting with Mr.

Guidelines for Emergency Action in the event of Poisoning This can be done by administering Charcoal Tablets (named Eucarbon Tablet in local Pharmacy) or by strong salted water, Do not give liquids other than to induce vomiting. Immobilise animal. Carry animal, do not try to make it walk. Do not panic as this can stress the animal and make it go into shock. Telephone to seek veterinary help and get the animal to the vet as quickly as possible.
Symptoms: Foaming at the mouth, body
trembling like movement under the skin, spasms, weakness and
diarrhoea. Remember: Always carry your mobile phone with you when walking your dog and make sure that you have all veterinary telephone numbers entered into your phone. Avoid areas that have been reported as previously know for poison being put down. It is advisable to muzzle your dog whilst exercising your dog and it is running loose. If you find anything that looks suspicious like poisoned meat carefully pick it up and report find to KAR. If your animal picks up poisoned meat return to area as soon as possible and pick up any remains of the poison. Report incident to KAR, Police and local Belediyre or Muhktar.
Hello
We wanted to let you know that one of our lovely rescue
dogs, Sandy, was poisoned on Feb 9th by strychnine laced in
a bread sandwich and thrown into our garden in Ozankoy at
night - the 2nd time this has happened (the 1st was in May
2007 and was strychnine on lumps of chicken) and the third
dog we have lost to poison in 9 months. There was also one
sandwich left on the pavement outside our neighbour's which
killed a cat, as well as another lot in our garden which,
thankfully, our other dog did not find. Even a dose of
atropine given to Sandy immediately & the fantastic care of
Sibel from Pet Life could not save her.
Then, last Saturday 23rd Feb, we were walking on Alagadi
beach (the smaller one) and our 'survivor', Rosie, found a
lump of bone & skin laced with poison. Fortunately the
atropine we always carry worked this time & gave her enough
time for us to get to Sibel's where she and Emma again gave
wonderful care and saved her for the 3rd time - and she's
still only 14 months.
We're now having extra fencing (and it's already high)
and security lights fitted round the house & are even more
careful about where we walk, though it's hard not to be
neurotic. We do hope your petition and canvassing is
successful soon so no more innocent pets and strays are
killed. Meanwhile, many thanks for publicising where the
recent attacks are and for all the work you do to help the
dogs and cats. The only consolation we have in all this is
that we were able to give a happy if short life to 3
puppies, and were rewarded many times over, though it's hard
to get rid of the memories of their horrific deaths.
Helen and David Cox, Ozankoy
