Dog owners in Nairobi and Nakuru are distraught after six of their dogs died from aflatoxin poisoning in the past month. They say their dogs started experiencing liver complications after consuming commercial dog food they had bought from supermarkets. “We bought the same brand of dog food we have been always buying, but this time from a different supermarket. The dog food pellets consisted of maize, fish and omega-3,” Eustace, a dog owner in Loresho, said. So I purchased dog food from the store just to give them a treat,” she says.
