Groomer Bitchslapping Dogs at Local Groomery
Wow this video is crazy. I'm pretty sure my shiba was beaten when we used to leave her for a whole day. I only take her to places like petsmart where they have like a 1 hour express service now.
Trina Riel, a former employee who was at Fur Kids since March, said could not longer turn a blind eye nor walk away without ensuring the abuse stopped.
“All I wanted to do was quit,” she said.
But friends and family said “it would still go on’ and convinced her to record the video and hand it over to humane society officials.
She said the ongoing abuse was disturbing and upsetting, given it seemed to stem from unprovoked anger directed at dogs, which in some cases had trouble standing .
“You can see from the video clearly, they are not doing anything,” she said.
“I’m jobless now,” she added.
“But it was worth it.”
The Sun initially obtained the video from Maggie O’Shaughnessy, a local lawyer, who earlier this year left her beloved pooch at a different doggie day care only to pick it up and find it in distress.
She said Harley, a 12-year-old Yorkie/chihuahua mix, was a near lifeless “ragdoll,” and had to be euthanized hours later — a case still under investigation by humane society officials.
