From Amanda Shaw.

THIS morning my septuagenarian father walked my four month old labradoodle puppies on Portelet Beach at 7 am.

He was very concerned when one of the puppies, Bolli, began screaming with pain and could see something green in his mouth.

The object turned out to be a 12 cm fish hook. The hooks pierced Bolli’s mouth and lips and lacerated my father’s hands while he tried to restrain the puppy so that he could disentangle the hooks.

Please could fishermen be careful with their equipment. My father and Bolli are luckily okay but it could have been far worse and could also have been a child who had the hooks stuck in their skin.
