A devastated pet owner has issued a warning after two of his beloved Springer Spaniels were 'deliberately poisoned' during a walk.
Nigel Nicholson, from Stonydelph, Tamworth, was walking his pooches Roxxi, Poppy, and Flash on Monday before the tragedy unfolded.
According to the heartbroken owner, 'poison' had been deliberately scattered around the Staffordshire neighbourhood before his dogs found it while out walking.
Mr Nicholson said: 'To who did this: You're scum. I hope you can live with yourself.
'My dogs didn't deserve this and the pain it has put them through. My wife, my kids, and grandkids are heartbroken.'
