The woman called the police. Dog was examined by a veterinarian Since it could not be ruled out that the dog had already eaten a piece of the supposed poison bait, the animal was taken to an animal practice for further examination. The remains of meat were seized and will be sent for examination. The investigation is ongoing. The police urge caution, especially in the area mentioned.
