Warning! Sad!!

[mcraven2]

This story happened a few towns over from me, and it's just so heart breaking!! Wanted to post this for whoever brings their dogs to dog day care to just remind the staff about Bullys and heat! Hope it's okay that I posted the link to the news article!

Can't bring myself to read the article at the moment. But I do remind the daycare employees to watch the boys more diligently when it's warm outside. They have told me that they force them to stay indoors in the a/c room some days, which is very reassuring. I even plan the week ahead and only take them when the temp's nice. If the week is full of scorching weather, then they stay home, much to the dismay of Stigs.

that is so very sad why would you put a blanket on a dog outside in hot weather man some people should not be aloud to be around dogs at all. It makes me sick to know theirs people out there like that. That's all I can say without getting reported for

I hope they're shut down. I worry about the day that I have to board Bruin & Lilly for some reason. I hope I never have to. I worked at a boarding place in sudbury ma for a little while and I didn't like what I saw there, It was no where near as bad as this though.

OMG.... I am hysterical :crying: ... that si so wrong on so many levels. I hope to hell that place is shut down.. leaving the bully in the heat with a blanket and all the other dogs still wondering around it and NOT calling the owner or a vet --- what are these people thinking.

OMG that is heartbreaking!! It was his birthday!
I can't stop crying. How could you not do anything???? A blanket????

 

[cali~jenn]

My gawd. This is why I could board my babies I don't think. I have a hard time trusting anyone with my babies anyhow and stories like this just prove I am not crazy. So sad, these poor people.

I think I found their website landofpawz dot com They received the best pet care award? Should write them? The owner says we can write him anytime, right on the home page. I knew I shouldnt have read the article

Their license was suspended for a month, due to unsanitary conditions. GOOD!!!

Oh, poor Cooper It was his birthday and his people just didn't want him to be alone! That is so heartbreaking. Especially since it so preventable. A tragedy for the poor bully and his family, too.

Sadly I wonder of the owner signed some kind of waiver when he dropped of his dog?

I use to work at a dog daycare... no waivers --- however, we did have waivers for 'open dog park' when humans were in the area with their dogs off leash -- it was a participate at own risk and you are responsible for you and your dogs behavior.

It's so scary! No matter how much you do your homework and check these places out you just can't be 100% that an employee won't make the stupid mistakes that these people do....I guess if you have to leave them an important thing for me would be that there were other bullies there. Scary scary scary....article but it reminds us of how bullies need to be treated differently than other dogs...
