On January 24th, Investigators with the DeSoto Parish Sheriff’s Office were made aware of a report of possible “animal poisoning” in the area of Stonehaven Drive in Frierson.  In the course of questioning multiple individuals and neighbors, investigators were able to determine that there could be a connection between the report and several recent others. 

It has now been determined that at least 4 dogs have been affected, and at least 2 have died so far from what has been determined by a Veterinarian as anti-freeze poisoning.  It is not yet determined if the poisoning was done maliciously, or whether the animals may have gotten into something in the neighborhood that was left out by mistake. 

Sheriff’s investigators are seeking out anyone in the area who may have recently had an outside pet fall ill, or die, suddenly.  If you have information, or know information that may assist investigators, please contact our office at 318-872-3956 and ask to speak with an investigator.
