Pet owners have been urged to be on the look-out after two dogs were bitten by snakes while walking in Aberdeenshire.
The dogs were bitten by adders in Stonehaven, and both required treatment at the Kirkton Veterinary Centre.
Adders are the UK’s only poisonous snake species and their venom can be fatal for dogs.
They are more active in the warmer weather and live in sheltered woodland edges and moorlands.

THREE RIVERS During one of their annual visits to Libertad, Belize in the mid-1990s as part of a Rotary Club project in the area, Larry Campbell from the Three Rivers Rotary Club noticed a block foundation, about three blocks high, that had been laid for a new school building.
Campbell asked the people around the construction site when it would be done, and the response from one of the workers was that they didn’t know.
“They work in the factory all day and they don t want to come home at night and work on the school,” Campbell said. “Pretty much, there was no hope.”
