Stella's dog walker heard her 'yelping' in pain after the incident.
A one-year-old Staffie had to have its leg amputated after allegedly being bitten by a snake in a Lanarkshire park.
Stella's dog walker, who runs Awwz & Pawz, said she heard the pup yelp out while she was being walked with other dogs but had initially thought it was a small cut.She said: "We were walking a route which I've done hundreds of times. She was a bit away from me. When she was bitten that's when I ended the walk.
"Over the weekend Stella had lost function in her paw and the vet decided they would have to amputate her leg. She wrote: "[The vet] said that more adder bite cases have been brought in so please be aware and avoid places they might be especially after they come out of hibernation from early Spring to August. The warm dry weather is preferable for them so that may be why they have been out more, so be especially more vigilant and cautious on the nice summer days."
"This has been investigated by the council and there is absolutely no evidence of any adders in this area, let alone any dog being bitten by one."However, our investigations have found no evidence the injury was caused by an adder.
