Major hasn't felt a human hand in over 545 days.
He's a service dog in Austin. A car hit him on a walk last year, and hurt and scared, he bit a woman who tried to pick him up. It was a bad bite. Nobody's denying that.
Since then he's been alone in an isolation kennel at the city shelter. Austin wants him put down. His owner says Major helps him with a brain injury and seizures, and a federal court has it on hold while it decides if an outside expert can evaluate him.
A hurt dog that bit once deserves a real evaluation before anybody kills him.
Should Major get that chance?
