Dog put down because of computer error

[Catherine]

I think this story should be out there for everyone to see.

Someone made the mistake on the computer. You are right, the computer did nothing wrong.
Someone actually killed the dog without double checking to be sure it was right.
Someone somewhere must have known there was a mistake. Lying to the woman and failing to call her right away are not the actions of a professional. That was totally unacceptable.

This is a mistake that can't be fixed. The dog is gone.

Quote:How would they feel if that had been a child's life at stake?

Sadly right now there is a case of a pharmacy filling a prescription with the wrong medication. The parents trusted the pharmacy, went home and gave the child his medication and in the morning they found him dead.

Pharmacies, Animal Shelters, hospitals, anywhere that deals with life and death issues should be held accountable. Clearly more caution needs to be taken by staff and records need to be kept of any errors made(even minor errors since the next error might not be so minor)
