Other Animal Disease — United Kingdom
A veterinary surgery in Malmesbury has told the BBC it’s treating a dog from Hullavington which is suspected of having Alabama Rot. This is a condition that causes blood clots, skin lesions and potential kidney failure in dogs.
As many as 2 other cases have been discovered in Wiltshire this year [2018], both of which were diagnosed after post-mortem examination.
All 3 dogs affected were walked within a 10 mile radius.
