    "The owners of a luxury canine hotel were banned from keeping animals today after a dog died from being neglected and starved while in their care. Collie-cross Izzie died 11 days after checking into Burlington Green Acres in Somerset - described as a 'loving home from home' run by Bernadette and Nicholas Fitzgerald-Roberts. The nine-year-old pet collapsed with convulsions and suffered from an open wound infested with maggots".

    I would think 12 months wasn't enough, but I guess the bad publicity would make up for it. I wouldn't leave any dog with these places unless I personally knew the owners or had references from others that had left dogs there.

    i believe public naming and shaming of those guilty of mistreating animals is the best form of punishment. they should have their mugshots with the article though
