How toxic blue-green algae can poison dogs

The video discusses toxic blue-green algae, or cyanobacteria blooms, which infest stagnant fresh water during warm weather. These blooms can appear as floating green scum or be hidden beneath the surface. Winds can spread the algae, posing a risk to dogs that swim in contaminated water or ingest dried algae on shores. Toxins from these blooms can severely damage a dog's liver, often leading to fatal outcomes within a short time after exposure.
