Veterinarians on the Yorkshire coast explain to the ‘Guardian’ that there has been a large increase in severe diarrhea and vomiting among animals
A mysterious disease is hitting the dogs off the Yorkshire coast, in the United Kingdom. As reported ‘The Guardian‘, veterinarians and owners have warned in recent days of a large increase in cases of vomiting serious and diarrhea that have occurred among the animals that have walked along the beaches of this region.
This Monday, the veterinary nurse Brogan Proud posted a message on Facebook asking dog owners not to go to the beach after detecting a significant increase in this mysterious disease, which could affect “thousands” of dogs. The publication has attracted the testimony of similar cases of people who visited the beaches with their dogs during the first days of January.

Beyond the theories that circulate through the networks, Proud has explained that no veterinarian, agency or authority has been able to establish a cause of this disease, which is unknown if it is related to having ingested any substance washed up on the beach or having bathed in the sea. No link has been established between this disease and the beaches of Yorkshire.
“If it is a virus or bacteria, it will spread through urine, feces or shedding. And we all know how dogs like to meet and greet each other: nose to nose, touching buttocks and all sorts of things, “explained the vet. His recommendation is to wash the dogs well and be aware of their behavior.
