A mother and her three children were left devastated when they went to the animal shelter to look in on their beloved family dog only to discover he had been accidentally put down due to a paperwork mix-up.

The Varker family had left their 16-month-old Australian cattle dog, Blaze, at the animal shelter in North Carolina for 10 days of quarantine after it had bitten a family member, causing a minor injury.
