A Queens family says their dog was wrongfully euthanized at a Brooklyn shelter.
The Leon family says their dog, Leona, was missing for a few hours near their Queens home, and that after posting a picture of their puppy, someone responded with a post from the Animal Care Center of NYC’s Lost and Found page with a picture of their dog.
“I was happy, my family was happy,” said Ericka Leon, owner of Leona. “I heard the word shelter, and I was like ‘I’m good, everything’s safe’.”
