Each Season brings risks to our beloved dogs. In this article I aim to bring awareness of Alabama Rot which although owners should be aware of. There is advice on how the risk can be reduced further.
Though Risks are low in the UK, and no known reported cases in our area, Alabama Rot is a seasonal risk to dogs during winter through to the spring, although the risk is low, to reduce the risks to your beloved dogs it is recommended washing off all mud following a wet and muddy walk, especially through woodland. See the link below for information from the RSPCA Keeping your dogs shorter in the winter helps with those muddy wet days and with the rinsing off after their walks.
