Per ABC 7 News:
Pet owners in Pasadena are on alert after a person was caught on video leaving foods that are poisonous for dogs near a pet daycare and boarding facility.
The suspect has left behind clusters of food, including grapes and chocolate, on walkways on Foothill Boulevard between Sierra Madre and Rosemead boulevards. Grapes and chocolate can be highly toxic to dogs.
Surveillance footage from outside Dogtopia of East Pasadena on Foothill Boulevard shows the suspect crouching down by some dirt and leaving behind something on the ground.
Veterinarians say small amounts of grapes can cause kidney failure and can be deadly for dogs. Chocolate can make a dog really sick, but that depends on the size of the dog and how much they consume.
A manager at Dogtopia, the dog daycare where the poisonous food was dumped, says the man has been dumping the hazardous food for dogs for months.
