Dog owners are being warned to keep their pets on leads at a popular Lincolnshire beauty spot after suspected dog poisonings.

Officers are asking owners not to allow their dogs to eat anything around Fillingham lake after two dogs died suddenly from what is thought to have been poisoning.

"If your dog becomes ill at all we would urge that you seek urgent veterinary help straight away."
