"health watch" for more parts of the Virgin River after one dog died and three other dogs fell ill from exposure to toxic algae mats in the river.

"Prevention is the best way to protect pets," division officials wrote in a statement. "If you believe your pet was exposed to a harmful algae mat, seek immediate care from your veterinarian."
