(Lannate)and Nudrin are
the brand name for Methomyl, a
carbamate pesticide Wearing a muzzle could save your dogs life The first signs an owner should look out for are salivating and shaking or staggering. The animal should be taken to a vet immediately for treatment. Owners must also be very vigilant in ensuring that their pets do not pick up any poisoned objects, which are usually fish or meat. Lanate is the brand name of an organophosphate pesticide. It is banned in almost every other country in Europe, but is readily available in Cyprus Cyprus law forbids “any person to inject, water or feed an animal with any product which contains a poison”. The punishment is a maximum of 12 months in prison, a £1,000 fine or both. Spate of dog poisonings on Paphos beach

Stray Dogs: By law, in Cyprus, stray dogs have to be rounded up and then kept for at least 24 hours in a pound - giving owners a chance to recover their pets - before being put down humanely. If you lose your pet, contact the police and your municipality. Also contact local vet offices during the day and the after-hours emergency clinics and animal shelters giving them a description of your animal and its identity number. Visit the pounds: strayed dogs are kept in the pound for up to 15 days after which they may be euthanised. If you find your pet at the pound you will pay for the costs incurred. Dog's are not allowed on the beach or in the sea. |
