My sister’s dog died while in the care of local OC boarding facility.
My sister’s dog was hit by a car and killed while in the care of an OC business called “Wags and Wiggles” 2 days ago. The dog was mishandled, unleashed and ran into the street. My family is devastated by the loss seeing that Raven was only 18 months old.
EDIT for those asking for additional info. This is what my sister posted on her socials.
My 1½ year old puppy Raven was killed while in the care of Wags and Wiggles RSM on 08.07.26.
Words cannot express the pain, disbeliet, anger, and sadness I feel. Raven's death should never have happened — it was preventable if proper protocol had been followed.
We were informed by the owner that while an employee was transporting Raven and her sister Charlotte between the small and large dog facilities in the late evening, she carried both dogs in her arms instead of
transporting one at a time and failed to keep hold of their leashes.
Raven panicked, broke free, and ran away.
She was later found dead after being hit by a car on a nearby street.
The owner reviewed video footage and confirmed the employee violated two company rules: always transport one dog at a time, and always keep dogs on leash.
Those failures directly led to Raven's escape and death.
