Los Angeles, California – A California woman is mourning the loss of her beloved puppy, Kilo, who died at a Los Angeles training facility. The Samoyed pup was just a few days into his training when his owner, Trish Mayor, got a call that he had passed away.
On a GoFundMe fundraiser, the tragedy that claimed the 11-month-old pup’s life is described:
Kilo was sent to a k9school for training, and just three days later Trish received the devastating news that he had died. She was told Kilo suffered a heart attack after being left alone in a crate for four hours in 85-degree heat. Even more painful, the trainer did not seek veterinary help and only contacted Trish the next day to tell her to come pick up Kilo’s body. Kilo did not even make it to his first birthday, and no dog or family should have to suffer a loss like this because of careless treatment.
The fundraiser states that the money will be used for a necropsy to determine the actual cause of death for Kilo.
Rest in peace sweet pup.

This training facility should be shut down. Obviously it is not equipped with the knowledge or desire to operate in a safe way. The individual responsible for leaving that poor dog locked up to suffer a horrible death also needs to be held accountable so that he/she does not cause another death.
Why do these training places seem to let dogs die? What is wrong with these people? I don’t trust them, so I would never send my dog to one! Jail time and shut them down. RIP little baby Kilo.
FOR CHRIST SAKES PUT PEOPLE IN JAIL FOR 10 YEARS FOR NEGLECT & IGNORANCE TO ANY LIFE OF ANY KIND & THIS BULLSHIT WILL STOP !!!
