A woman has been left without her guide dog after a deadly mistake at a training facility on Long Island. Now, she is hoping her experience will raise awareness so no-one else has to go through the same pain.
"He was my guardian angel," she said. "He was next to me all the time."
The foundation that has placed hundreds of guide dogs with individuals with disabilities free of charge over the past 76 years had matched her with Milton at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The two were inseparable. "He gave Michelle a whole new lease on life," said Michelle’s husband, Tom. "A whole new outlook." "They said there was a tragic accident and they said he was accidentally left in a vehicle," Michelle said.
The Krupas tell us a trainer left Milton in a van for hours on one of the hottest days of summer and called it a tragic mistake.
