River Dhoo water declared safe despite claims it made dog sick
The chairman of Manx Utilities says there are no signs of contamination in the River Dhoo.
A post circulating on Facebook claimed a dog became ill after drinking water from the river.
The owner submitted a sample to the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture last month, but tests have showed no threat to health.
Dr Alex Allinson MHK is urging anyone with concerns to contact the relevant authorities rather than taking to social media:
