Scottish Water is now urging people in the area to be alert to any "unusual activity" by commercial vehicles like tanker lorries which could be linked to the problems being experienced.

I just wanted to put out a warning to all dog walkers . Please keep your dogs away from the river temporary if possible . My dog had been in the Kemnay river , had drank the water , had been sick the same night and unfortunately passed away the next morning. There’s been lots of dogs getting unwell recently that had been either in the water or on walks , this had been reported to SEPA and waiting for an outcome . I cant say for sure it was definitely the water but there is a chance it could have been .
