On May 17th 2018, at around 9am, we brought my dog, Lexi to get a haircut at Lotte's Professional Grooming in Wilbraham on Boston Road. Before we dropped my dog off, she was super hyper and happy running around. My mom went to pick up my dog about a little over an hour later, but when she pulled up to Sharon's establishment she came running outside to my moms car saying she didn't know what happened, my dog had a seizure and my dog was dead, she told my mom to go down the street to the Wilbraham animal hospital to pick up her body. Instead of our dog being in the hospitals custody and care, the groomers husband was sitting outside in the parking lot in his truck. My mom went over and he pulled a white box out of the back of his truck with our dogs body inside. My mom came immediately home hysterical, screaming, crying not knowing how this all happened. By this time it was 11am. My dog went from happy to dead within 2 hours. Once my family and I had the time we needed with our baby, we knew we didn't have the money for an autopsy and to just let our baby rest and have her cremated. instead of paying for a haircut we paid for a cremation. When we went back to Sharon's place to pick up our dog's collar, we asked how it happened, and she gave us a different story saying she had no idea what happened, she said she had her back turned to our dog on the table, she heard a thump and when she turned around our dog was limp. 
Now that we have grieved, we have realized we want justice for our sweet dog, and to do whatever we can to make sure nothing like this happens again, as she has killed another dog in the past. 
But it's not too late for us to ask for our dogs body back, before shes cremated, so we can have an autopsy be done to find out her cause of death, but due to her body being on ice, the sample might not be good enough to really show how she died. So we are asking for help, we want to go forward and get a lawyer to fight for our dog because we know she didn't die from a seizure. 
Please help us pay for the autopsy and the lawyer, any amount helps! Thank you all so much!
