Fourteen dogs in a western Canadian pet daycare and boarding facility died on Saturday after a mechanical malfunction caused heat to continuously enter their kennels, the organisation said.

The Playful Paws Pet Centre in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, said on Saturday in a Facebook post a “travesty of life” happened, and its staff are reaching out to the dogs’ owners.

“We love our dogs and each of our team is trying to personally cope with this terrible loss,” Playful Paws said on its Facebook page. The centre did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

It is not immediately clear how long the heat was on before the dogs died or whether the centre would compensate the owners. Local police said the incident does not warrant the involvement of law enforcement.

  1. This is such a tragic incident and it saddens me terribly. I love my dogs so much that's why I keep on learning new ways to pamper them. I'm glad I was able to look for a review site http://dogbedanswers.com/ for it gives me ideas on how to take care of my dogs. Hopefully no more incident will happen on this facility.
