A Kelowna dog rescue society is warning pet owners after it claims at least two dogs were poisoned near the Myra Canyon Trestles.

While some earlier reports had said a dog had died as a result, they were fortunately wrong, but the warning is still an important one.

At least two dogs have allegedly become extremely sick and required veterinarian care.

, pet owners are being told to avoid the McCulloch and Myra Canyon trestles area as poisoned pieces of meat and treats were scattered throughout the trails.

As it stands, these are the only reports in the Kelowna area.
