ANOTHER Beloved Dog Dies During PetSmart Grooming

Beloved dog dies during PetSmart grooming and grief-stricken owner wants answers

Quote
The call was cold, abrupt and confusing.

A PetSmart employee told Chuck Crawford his beloved dog Abby was dead and gave him info on where to pick up the carcass.

"It was a 20-second phone call. It was so crude and beyond comprehension," Crawford said. "To take your pet for a grooming, and then have them die? That is the absolute worst thing."

Crawford dropped both his corgis, Abby and Harley, off at the Toms River PetSmart for a grooming at 8 a.m. on March 29. When he got a call around 9:45 a.m., he expected to get word they were ready for pickup.

Harley was fine, he said. But Abby wasn't even at the Toms River store. The 8-year-old dog had been taken by PetSmart employees to the company's Brick store. That's where he could retrieve the dog's carcass, he said he was told.

"In order to really enjoy a dog, one doesn't merely try to train him to be semihuman. The point of it is to open oneself to the possibility of becoming partly a dog." Edward Hoagland
"Thorns may hurt you, men desert you, sunlight turn to fog; but you're never friendless ever, if you have a dog."
