⚠ Alabama Rot - confirmed case ⚠

Unfortunately we have seen a confirmed case of Alabama Rot, also known as CRGV, this time in the Cleobury Mortimer area. An additional case is suspected but not yet confirmed.

While there is no need for panic, we're advising dog owners to be vigilant and to contact their vet if their dog develops unexplained skin lesions, particularly on the legs or paws.

We don't yet know what causes CRGV and it remains a very rare disease. Most cases occur between November and May and there is some evidence of a link to walking in wet, muddy woodland areas. It may be beneficial to wash and dry your dog after a muddy walk. Current advice is that there is no need to avoid walking in certain areas.

Signs to look for:

▪️ Skin sores not caused by a known injury, particularly on the legs or paws
▪️ Swollen skin
▪️ Redness

Signs that may be seen if kidney problems develop:

▪️ Vomiting
▪️ Changes in behaviour such as fatigue or lack of appetite
