The animal rescue group ARPA has alerted dog owners to pieces of meat laced with glass found along the Rec del Solà path in Andorra la Vella, warning it could be an intentional act to injure pets.
ARPA issued the alert this afternoon after a dog suffered serious digestive injuries from ingesting the contaminated meat during a walk with its owner. The animal was rushed to a veterinary clinic and is likely to require surgery to address the damage, though its prognosis remains uncertain.
The organisation expressed outrage among its members and called on owners of dogs and cats to keep animals on leads in the area, stay alert to anything suspicious on the ground, and avoid letting pets sniff freely. They also urged people to carefully pick up and bin any suspect food to prevent further harm.
The dog's owner notified ARPA this afternoon. Once the animal undergoes surgery, ARPA plans to file a police complaint to prompt an investigation into who left the glass-laced meat and identify the perpetrator.
No official response has come from authorities, and the full extent of the contamination remains unclear.
