LAKE ISABELLA, Calif. (KBAK/KBFX) - Holly Clark took her dog, Sparky, to Darlene's Pet Salon last month. Two hours later, she received a call from her husband, telling her that Sparky had suffered a heart attack.
She rushed over to find Sparky dead.
Clark was going to have her dog cremated, but she grew suspicious. She said her dog never had a medical history, and she was alarmed by his sudden death.
She went to the Kern Animal Hospital and had a necropsy report worked up on her dog. The report shows the dog was in perfect health and that the dog died of suffocation, not a heart attack.
The groomers at Darlene's Pet Salon told Eyewitness News on Wednesday that the dog was left unattended by one of the groomers as she was giving him a bath. The dog jumped out of the tub and hanged himself.
The employees said the groomer who was washing the dog constantly had problems with leaving pets unattended. They said she took the written exam and passed, but would need constant reminders to watch over the pets she was grooming.
After the dog died, the salon's owner fired the bather....................
