A Petco groomer cut off part of a puppy's ear and then tried to cover it up by gluing it back on, claims its devastated owner.
Grandmother Gladys Kapuwi, who is now suing the firm, claims she took Pomerian-Maltese mix Dodo to Petco in Hawaii for a grooming but was left horrified when the puppy was returned with a piece of its ear missing.
She told the HawaiiNewsNow website: '[She] was dried, bloody, was dry blood, everything

'I noticed that at home, so when I took her to the vet, the doctor had told me it looked like they tried to glue it back.
'I couldn't believe what they did. I started crying because this is our baby, too, you know.'

In a separate case another pet owner Estelle Green claims she picked up her dog to find that the its nails were cut too short and bleeding.
Both dog owners are now suing the Petco with Mrs Green's husband Michael Green prosecuting both cases.
Both claim groomers at the pet shop mutilated their dogs.

Mr Green told the Hawaii Star Advertiser: 'The dog was filthy and the tip of the dog's tail was cut off.
'My dog, they offered another free grooming. I guess they wanted to take off other body parts.'
Ms Kapuwai said staff at Petco should have come clean about Dodo's injury sooner and hopes the lawsuit will lead to better training for the pet stylists.
She added: 'Even the doctor said they could have saved her ear if they told me right there, but they didn't.'
