Palm Oil blocks have been washed up on beaches along the Northwest and Wales. Dogs, because of their inquisitive nature, are at risk of ingesting the palm oil, which can prove damaging — and in some cases fatal.
In mild cases, after ingestion, it can have a laxative effect but cause severe gastroenteritis. Large quantities could cause gut blockage. Dogs could develop a serious condition called pancreatitis, which can be life-threatening, as a result of eating the fatty blocks.
Please avoid your dog eating these on beaches.
