Our local news is carrying a story about two pugs who were "forgotten" under the dryer at the groomers. It seems that this couple went on a weekend vacation and left two of their four pugs to be boarded and groomed. Someone forgot about the pugs and they were under the dryer for 45 min.! Needless to say, they didn't survive. The couple was interviewed on TV and it was so sad! They said their remaining dogs seem to be looking around for the other two. Thankfully they didn't take all 4 there! About 6 months ago there was another story about a Yorkie who was forgotten in a dryer and died also. I am wondering just how often this type of thing goes on and how in the world could someone forget about a dog!! The woman in the interview said that only pet owners will understand the grief she feels. Her husband was crying in the interview. The kennel has acknowledge full responsibility and is very remorseful but that won't bring these babies back. Here's the link.
