It’s been an uncertain time for Leeloo. The trouble started when Leeloo’s owner, Kara Brundage, took a friend and her daughter horseback riding. When they got back, the girl asked if she could give Leeloo some water. Brundage turned her back for just a moment as the girl put the water bucket down in front of the dog, but that’s when Leeloo nipped the child’s leg.
The bite required a trip to the hospital for treatment, and the girl’s mother filed a report. Under Orange County Animal Care’s policy, all dogs that bite are required to go through quarantine. But that’s when things got even more complicated. OC Animal Care got a tip that Leeloo might be a wolf-dog hybrid, and under state law, hybrids are not recognized as having been vaccinated for rabies. Leeloo would face euthanasia pending a DNA test.
Are you glad to see that Leeloo will go live at a wolf sanctuary instead of being euthanized? Or do you think she should go home to her family? Let us know in the comments below!
