Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I tata te matapo o tētahi kuri o te whānau, e ai ki tōna rangatira, nā tētahi pānga haumanu i muri i tana whakatikatika i tētahi toa nui o Pets at Home. I utua e Terry Maughan, 20 tau, no Norton £36 mō tana West Highland terrier Snowbell, 20 marama te pakeke, kia whai i te maimoatanga. Engari, i tana kawenga i tana kurii aroha ki te kāinga, ka ohorere ia ki te kite i te kurii e uaua ana ki te manawa, e kore hoki e taea te whakatuwhera i ona kanohi. Ko Terry Maughan (māui) me tōna teina o Christopher Maughan (matau) me Snowbell. I hohoro a Terry, te kaihanga, ki te kawe i a Snowbell ki te whare kararehe, i kitea ai e ratou he pānga haumanu ki te hopi. 'I whakaaro katoa mātou ka mate ia,' te kī a Mr Maughan. 'I taea e ia te whai i te mate pukupuku, i te reira e patu na nohopuku. He whero ōna kanohi, ā, kāore i taea e ia te whakatuwheratia, ā, he nui te waipuke i a ia. I haere a Snowbell ki ngā mea, nā reira i whakaaro mātou ka matapo pea ia. I tino manukanuka katoa rātou ki a ia, he mema ia o te whānau, ā, i tangi ōku tuakana, ōku tuahine. Ki taku whakaaro he mea whakamā te mea i tupu. Kāore koe i te tūmanako ka pā mai tēnei ki tō kuri i te wā ka hoatu e koe ki ngā ringa o ngā tohunga raihana me te whakangungu. 'Kei te pai ake ia ināianei nā te raupapa o ngā maturuturunga kanohi i hoatu e te kaitiaki kararehe ki a ia engari he tukanga tino puhoi. 'Kei te mataku au ka raru tana tirohanga i roto i te heke mai na tenei ka matapo pea. 'I haere taku papa ki te toa Pets at Home ki te korero ki a ratou kia mutu te whakamahi matū na te mea kua tata mate to maatau kuri. I te wā i kawea ai e Terry tana kuri ki te whare kararehe, he whero, he kino hoki ona kanohi, he nui te hūhū o te waiu, he tere te pēhi o te ngakau me te pāmahana. Ko te āhua nei na te whakawāteatanga o te māharahara i puta ai ngā tohu. ' E toru rā te roa i whakautu ai rātau ki tā mātou amuamu, ā, kāore rātau i ui mai ki a mātou he pēhea. Ko Snowbell, i mea rānei, i mihi ki a ia mō te mea i tupu. Ki taku whakaaro he mea whakarihariha, he mea whakamataku.' I mate a Snowbell i te haora i muri i tana horoi horoi, horoi me te kutikuti makawe i te salon Groom Rooms i Pets at Home i Festival Park, Stoke-on-Trent. I whakawhiwhia te whānau ki te pire kararehe £102. Kua whakarewahia e Pets at Home he rangahau mo te...
He kanohi toto tō te kurii, ā, he tere ake te pēhi o te ngākau i muri tonu i tana whakatikatika. Ko tōna rangatira, ko Terry Maughan, nō Norton i tere ki te kawe i te poaka ki te tākuta kararehe. E ai ki te kaitiaki kararehe, nā te tere o te mahi i ora ai te kuri, a Snowbell, engari i mataku te whānau ka mate. Kua tīmata te Pets at Home i tētahi tirotirohanga engari kāore i te mōhiotia te take.
