They should have known the dog was missing within an hour, max, although that might still have been too late.
Horrible accident. Businesses have insurance for this reason. Pay the dog owner generously.
Truly heartbreaking.
Reminds me of two businesses that shared an address, a veterinarian and a taxidermist. Either way, you get your dog back.
Some times AN ACCIDENT IS JUST AN ACCIDENT
Sad, but additional government intervention seems unnecessary.
I hate the thought of any being dying in that fashion, but those were my first thoughts, too.
Yes, it is horrible but it was an accident. Recompense the owner, sure; criminal charges, just no. Prayers for the family and the dear departed. Prayers for the kennel workers, too, who must feel very bad.
Yep, but sometimes, the accident is so bad there is liability involved. The woman took her dog there on the assumption it would be taken care of. At the very least, the "metal dog pool leaning against a fence" sounds like some fairly slovenly doggie care. If they want anyone to ever trust them with their pets again after this hits the news, they better pay generously or kiss their business goodbye. I know I would never trust them.
Looking at the title of the thread, I was thinking that it somehow involved a bakery and homosexuals....
Seriously, I feel very badly for the owner, and for the suffering that the dog went through. That’s why we boarded our dog once, and never again. She was well treated (that we know of), but very depressed for a couple of weeks after we got her back. We now leave her with friends or cousins
Government gets involved, pet boarding fees go up, more dogs spend their days in the garage or chained in the yard.

I have a doggie door, they free-feed and have several sources of water, they stay home alone with someone checking on them every few days.
Sad story...for a minute I thought someone got the doggie stoned.
Let my Schmoo roast to death ? Game on, lawyers, guns, and money time.
No Gubbmint required.
I read that Obama’s daughter tried to open a doggy day care at the White House but some of the plumper dogs turned up missing because daddy was cooking them on a spit on the south lawn.
Just a rumor though...
Thanks for the heads-up. I better not ever board our dog, she gets depressed seeing us get ready for work/school/church, i.e. whenever she knows she'll be left alone. lol
And she's got the sad look down pat.
If I had a doggie door I’d probably come home to a black bear trashing my house.
Yes, it was an accident, not negligence. I cannot stand this society which wants to sue for every single unavoidable mishap. Stuff happens.
