A beloved rescue dog was dead within hours after ingesting 1080 poison on an afternoon walk in a Taupo forest last week.
Buster’s owners Stacy and John Lewis are angry about the lack of notification about the drop in Motouapa’s Hatepe forest and say signs were not in place warning of the poison danger.
They said it was every dog owners nightmare- to watch them die in pain.
“He started by peeing inside, which was unusual.” Stacy said.
“Then he went outside for another big pee and starts screaming and running around the house in a blind panic.
“We tackled him and took him outside where he has his first seizure.”
