慈善组织Dogs Trust发起宣传活动,呼吁公众重视英国开放水域可能带来的安全隐患[1]。该组织指出,近年来已发生数百起与开放水域相关的事故,其中部分导致宠物或人员丧生[1]。
Dogs Trust Kenilworth的再收养经理Emma-Jane Thomas表示:"随着天气炎热,数百万个家庭现在在开放水域附近活动,人们很容易忽视其中存在的危险。"[1]这场警示活动特别针对英格兰中部Solihull附近的Earlswood Lakes等地[1],提醒家庭在夏季休闲活动中应更加谨慎。
Dogs Trust has launched a campaign to alert the public about the dangers that open bodies of water across the UK can present to both dogs and their owners.[1] The charity has documented hundreds of incidents in recent years involving open water, some of which have resulted in the deaths of pets or people.[1]
As warmer weather drives more families to spend time near open water areas, the risks often go unrecognized. Emma-Jane Thomas, rehoming manager at Dogs Trust Kenilworth, noted that "we've had all this hot weather and millions of families are now spending time around open bodies of water, and it's easy to not realise the dangers."[1] The campaign specifically highlights concerns at locations such as Earlswood Lakes near Solihull in England's West Midlands.[1]
