My heart goes out to Jag's family.This act was criminal and sheer neglect. Would they leave a child on the table alone with a noose around its neck? It's appalling and must be stopped! They should be banned from AKC

It is a terrible tragedy, that was totally preventable. Nothing caused this other than complete negligence on the handlers part.

Patricia Urban said 07/28/05, 1:02 am (verified)

I live in the community these "handler's" call home. Many, many people spent hours looking for this magnificent boy when he was already gone and they knew it. Jag didn't deserve any of this. My prayers are with him and his owners.

We see this way to often at shows, no dog should be left unattended on a grooming table with or without a noose.

#970

Laura Martin said 07/28/05, 12:38 am (verified)

This is so sad. I can't believe the stupidity behind what happened to poor Jag. I, too, hope that these handlers are permanently suspended from ever showing dogs again.

#968

Karen Sandvold said 07/28/05, 12:36 am (verified)

This should have been a law a long time ago! To leave a dog unatteneded in a noose on a grooming table is more than stupid - it's criminal and a handler should know better!

#967

Shelley Malone said 07/28/05, 12:36 am (verified)

This is a real shame. May this be a small relief to his owners.

This is one of the first things I learned as a bather. Never leave a dog on a table unattended, they do jump and/or fall.

#941

Sandra Slayton said 07/27/05, 11:39 pm (verified)

This should have never happened. It is worse than a tragedy, it is criminal neglect as far as I am concerned.

Hazelanne Prokop said 07/27/05, 11:25 pm (verified)

I groomed for eight years in NY- my assistant and I never left a dog on a grooming table and never went more than two foot away from a dog on a grooming table. How much time does it take to get a dog off a grooming table? 3 to 5 seconds? 5 seconds more to put him or her in a crate? These people should never be allowed to work with dogs again!

How sad and how terrible to loose such a wonderful Golden. The Handlers should be suspended. Not only for leaving Jag on his table but creating a lie about the dog running away...

#925

Kathy Terry said 07/27/05, 11:09 pm (verified)

That this should be possible is outrageous. That there should have been a cover-up, criminal.

My sincere sympathy to both Teddy, Janis and families Hope this kind of incident will never happen again. Hopefully AKC will do something about this kind of thing. Too many dogs are left strung up on the table without supervision. Penalties should be the way to stop this kind of dangerous practice.
