Owner Kerrie Brown had recently left her beloved Bonnie, a three-year old Chow Chow at the groomers for a regular grooming session

[{"selector":"#anim-56ef6cf5-851b-4bfc-a425-ddf43ceaa789","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-72d525e0-dda0-437d-a10c-391da6a57c90","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(112.08458%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image source: Unsplash Image source: Unsplash spanieldogs.com spanieldogs.com

It had been only two hours when Kerrie received a call from the salon staff stating that Bonnie had relieved herself and was showing symptoms of sickness

[{"selector":"#anim-7e36cafb-b60b-4bad-b2ca-77bafb1989f2","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-09521dd5-816d-463f-9e96-6ce1c08c090b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(112.08458%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image source: Unsplash Image source: Unsplash spanieldogs.com spanieldogs.com

Having heard that, the owner rushed to the groomers', only to find Bonnie desperately panting for air

[{"selector":"#anim-76bceda4-188c-4b7c-a58f-a7dc2b6ebf08","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-314c3823-98e2-4294-9933-5d16ecfbbfa7","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(112.08458%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image source: Unsplash Image source: Unsplash spanieldogs.com spanieldogs.com

She was immediately rushed to a nearby vet, but sadly the results were too hard to swallow for the unsuspecting owner

[{"selector":"#anim-db59013f-0ad2-484b-8840-ae0d1b8e397c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3c6a540e-e0f1-4ad6-9f95-0d4d651117b1","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(112.38670%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image source: Google Image source: Google spanieldogs.com spanieldogs.com

The vet said that Bonnie had suffered severe heatstroke and that her organs including the brain was damaged beyond recovery

[{"selector":"#anim-8feb6044-45ea-44e5-914d-24e1664fec94","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-eb8acdaa-1700-4354-8011-101c81e15d4f","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(112.38670%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image source: Google Image source: Google spanieldogs.com spanieldogs.com

At last the Chow Chow had to be put down abruptly even though she had been perfectly fine before visiting the groomers

[{"selector":"#anim-dce16197-09a4-4023-a3c5-0900e24ec6c0","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ec1c41fd-dac8-437a-8095-56418800992e","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(112.38670%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image source: Unsplash Image source: Unsplash spanieldogs.com spanieldogs.com

To prevent this from happening again and to seek justice for her canine, Kerrie has now sued the grooming salon, lawyered up and even contacted the Scottish SPCA

[{"selector":"#anim-54d3fedf-8dc8-48b7-aa29-1272f2b0ec46","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a7658522-522e-4f25-aa0b-46ef17f35a42","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(112.08458%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image source: Unsplash Image source: Unsplash spanieldogs.com spanieldogs.com

"I have also contacted a lawyer and we plan to sue. I have made what happened to Bonnie go viral so this suffering does not happen to another dog", told Kerrie in her recent post

Investigation is currently underway and we hope justice comes soon to the bereaved owners and Bonnie soon
