Just to make people aware that last night our 5 month old puppy called Poppy came in contact with one of the dangerous caterpillars she started to foam at the mouth and her tongue started to swell my daughter phoned petcross to say we thought our dog had been poisened and was told to meet them at the surgery. The vet was waiting there when we arrived she gave her an injection immediately and put her on a drip which lasted about an hour we have to take her back thismorning and is still very poorly we cannot praise the vets enough and would just like to advice people to be careful and be vigilant.
