Milton he was the perfect labrador retriever. michelle krupa, his mistress, had taken fifteen years to find him. As she told CBS New York, she is “very sad” because she doesn’t know how she is going to go on without him. “He’s been by my side the whole time,” he complained.

Krupa is likely to get a new dog from the same foundation, which he said in a statement that he was taking “immediate” steps to review the “tragic event” and mitigate the potential for it to happen again.
On the day of his death, Milton’s instructors had planned to take him for a walk, but they left him in the vehicle and forgot about it.
“It was hot. The plans were changed. And they left him in the van as if he was about to leave. They said they thought nothing like this could ever happen. And that’s the problem. You can’t trust humans to be perfect when they don’t. I am.” I am, ”Michelle said.

To Krupa’s husband, TomMilton “was more than a guide dog”, he was part of his family. “It was Michelle’s way out to the outside world and my pet,” the man said in a Facebook post.
“It gave Michelle a chance to step out without reservation and have faith in herself and the world she was protecting her from. Now he is gone, and even though it was a tragic accident, she is back in front of the world and alone, “she continued.
“Milton, I may not have told you enough, but we and I love you. Rest in peace my good boy, one day we will meet again, ”concluded Tom.

His injuries are serious and deep. So much so that he says they appear to be the result of a “shark attack”. But the aggression was not produced by a beast, it was produced by his own dog.
It all happened on June 9th. Caroline Fisher (48) had just returned home to Blackpool, Lancashire, Great Britain, when with meher Bulgarian shepherd dog pounces on her. And he rammed her brutally.
Metcho was suppressed after the attack.
The woman was on her way home from Berlin, Germany. But what should have been a 48-hour trip to that city has been extended by another four days due to frequent flight cancellations.
“I was in Berlin and was only supposed to be away for two days, but I was thrown into chaos when the airline canceled our flight and we were stuck there for another four days,” Caroline told The Mirror.
It was at that moment, returning from a trip that lasted longer than expected, that her pet attacked her.

Suddenly, the 180-pound Karakachan – another name for the breed – lunged at her, ripping off the back of her right arm and mutilating her left leg with such ferocity that her tendons were exposed as she struggled to save her life. .
The woman believes that the excitement of her homecoming and excessive encouragement may have triggered the violence in Metcho, who had never previously assaulted her in any way.
Caroline was rushed to the hospital to undergo multiple skin and muscle graft surgeries.
Eventually, Metcho was put down three days after the attack. Throughout that time, they had to keep him locked up in the kitchen as the authorities offered no solution.
