Council is urging dog owners to be vigilant and consider keeping their dogs on-lead after strange objects containing meat and onions were found today at Sandy Point.

A member of the public took their dog to the veterinarian after it ate meat found at the Pitt Road carpark at Sandy Point.

Park Assets Manager Graeme Davies said a Parks’ ranger returned to the area with the member of the public and found an object which appeared to be flax tied around pieces of meat, onion, and flower petals.

Onions contain thiosulphate which is toxic to cats and dogs.

Two similar objects were also found in the area.
