A Tennessee woman is raising concerns after her senior rescue dog reportedly went missing during a $2,200 professional training and boarding program.
Missy Gentry placed her senior rescue dog, Mervyn, in a leash-recall training program before leaving the country, expecting him to receive structured training and safe boarding during her absence.
When she returned, Gentry says the dog was gone. She has since spent extensive time searching for Mervyn, while the training facility has declined to provide detailed answers, citing ongoing legal matters. The case has raised questions about accountability in pet training and boarding services, as well as the legal protections available to pet owners in similar situations.
