My heart goes out to BOTH. My son is 19, and I can't imagine loosing him this way. This was a terrible accident. I'm sure he was a very good boy. Mr. Hayden is my neighbor.. retired from INCO, and was taken his dog to be groomed. An ambulance took him to the hospital last night, I haven't heard anything since. The Hayden's are animal lovers, and are always donating to local animal charities, as well as the heart association. They are exremely good people. A freak accident that happened, and couldn't be helped.
