Cardenas told investigators that while bathing Walter, he was freaking out. After the bath, she said he threw up food and yellow bile so she placed him in a kennel dryer for 30-45 minutes.

Meanwhile, multiple sources on grooming practices warn not to leave dogs in heated kennel dryers for more than 15 minutes.

It's frightening, to me, the idea that I could take my furry friends somewhere for professional services and have them randomly die. I don't think that would happen at the place where we go. They have seemed very capable of caring for my cats for many years. But holy shit. This is terrible.

Both women are now waiting to learn their fate following not guilty pleas. PACC says they each face up to a $2,500 fine and no more than 6 months in jail if found guilty.

I'm against our carceral system. But if you killed one of my kitties, I'd want you to do time. Other than my partner, they are my closest friends. Her's too.
