Dog strangled to Death at Show


 Just got this in my inbox from a friend..just thought i would share its very sad..


There has been a tragedy in the show dog world which involves a
Golden Retriever named Jag.  He was strangled to death while left
unattended on a grooming table by his paid professional handlers. 
The handlers did not admit to the accident and instead tried to
cover up his death with telling the owners that the dog had been
lost while exercising him.  After almost two months of searching (by
tons of people) it appears a witness has come forward that saw the
dog hanging from the grooming table noose. 

There is an attempt to get AKC to pass a rule requiring penalties
for ANYONE at a dog show leaving a dog unattended on a grooming
table. 

The assistance of this list is requested in signing the petition so
that we can assure that all dogs, both show and pets, are protected
from cruel treatment.

Please go to
http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/jag to sign the
petition.

i think it was absolutely sick that the handler lied about it. To think of that poor dog strangling to death is heartbreaking

that is so sad and odd. from what i have seen of the dog shows, there is alot of hussle and bustle . you would think someone would have noticed the dog was in trouble. that handler should be banned from ever handling anyone elses dogs. i thought about showing rocky. but if i ever do, i will do it myself. i am the only one that i trust with my dogs. i know no one will watch them and care for them like i do.
