HS Helsinki “Dogs literally screamed in pain” – Pets walking in Katajanokka suffer from unexplained symptoms

Dogs that go outside in Katajanokka have had exceptionally strong paw pain attacks. The reason is a mystery.

Katajanokan the paws of the dogs have been exceptionally tested for a reason unknown so far.

Veera Papinoja testified Monday night as two passers-by dogs suddenly started screaming and lifting their paws down a dirt road along the shore.

“The dogs were literally screaming in pain. I walked with my own dog on the side of the lawn. At first it was thought with the owner that the dogs had stepped into something sharp. Later, I walked home to the same street and my dog ​​did the same. ”

The very next day, Papinoja’s dog Sydney had a seizure due to paw pain when crossing a shelter.

It soon became clear that there had been more similar cases.

Papinoja wrote about Katajanokka dogs in the Whatsapp group. In the group, six dog owners shared the same experience. All the scenes were clearly related to something that was in the country.

Through Sydney’s Instagram account, Papinoja also heard about similar cases in Töölö and Vallila.

“It’s clear that salting and sanding can cause pain to dogs, but this has been quite exceptional,” Papinoja says.

He says, for example, that the owner of a ten-year-old dog with paw pain has assured him that nothing like this has happened before.

Helsinki the head of the city maintenance unit Pekka Isoniemi says the streets are being salted to some extent.

“Condominiums in particular use a lot of salting because it’s the cheapest option.”

The city primarily uses sandblasting, which is also a bad option for dog paws. Some of the driveways in the city also have salt.

However, it is unlikely that the exceptional paw pain would be due to salt: it should be the same rock salt as ever.
