Michaela Strachan told of her shock after discovering her much-loved dogs were poisoned by the drug crystal meth.
Springwatch host Michaela, 55, took to Instagram to share the devastating news with her followers. Her pet poaches Rio and Timmy, both rescue dogs, began having seizures after returning from a mountain walk near their South Africa home.
Michaela Strachan rushed her dogs to the vet
The star quickly rushed them to the vet, who recognised the symptoms as an overdose from a drug with the street name ‘Tik’. The vet told Michaela that she believed the mutts had eaten human faeces, which left them confused and disorientated.

Alongside the snap of her poorly poaches, she wrote: “Extraordinarily, the vet has come across the problem before.
“I spent the night nursing them through their hectic trips as they shook, twitched, vomited and peed.”
In addition, she said: “They were waking up confused, disorientated, paranoid and spaced out. Fortunately, they seem to be through the worst of it this morning. But, seriously, you couldn’t make it up.”
