SukritiAn Identification Mark?
“I noticed there was a big box on the side of the collar and that box was almost directly on her throat,” recalled Luke later in an interview. On March 11, 2017, like every other day, Luke was on time to pick Mya when he noticed an extra collar which at first he thought was an identification mark to classify dogs but then it was something weird which he never noticed in the last one year. Then he was unable to understand that why now all of a sudden this big black band with a box was tightly wrapped around Mya’s neck and what he did next was obvious.
Questioning The Staff
As Luke was unable to understand why would anyone put a collar that tight on Mya’s neck and he was looking for an explanation from the staff as he wanted to know if this was the first instance or it is in their daily routine. Therefore, he immediately walked into the daycare to ask the staff what this is all about; reasonable question but what response he received from the caretakers was disturbing.
Offensive Response
Luke later recalled the first response of the daycare staff in an interview,”The troubling thing was the first thing she said when I walked in the door and held it up was, ‘Uh Oh,'” That was a rude response from the people who were supposed to take care of Mya and other people’s pet as well. They definitely own an answer to Luke but they seemed to be disinterested in the conversation.
Assured Yet Not Sure
Luke was assured by the staff that there’s nothing harmful about the collar and it just made a mere sound to prevent Mya from barking if she ever does and that’s all. Keeping aside all the information, Luke wasn’t convinced as he had this sure feeling that something was suspicious about the collar tightly wrapped around Mya but he didn’t have any evidence to prove his words. “She didn’t seem apologetic — more defending herself,” the couple stated about the dog daycare spa owner.
The Couple Was Stunned
Although Luke asked for a clarification from the daycare center staff, he wasn’t convinced at all with the replies he received. When he came home he searched what exactly this collar was for and what was the purpose of this black box that was closely stuck to Mya’s throat and he found out the same product on an online shopping website. He was appalled by the idea of this.
Shock Number 6
When Luke reached home and told Lauren about the day’s incident, she checked on to Mya’s additional collar and she was stunned to see that there’s a no.6 mentioned on the collar. “The first thing I realized was that if there’s a ‘No. 6’ on it, there must be five others,” Lauren reminisced her experience. This was something that was a complete disappointment for the two.
