CLEVELAND (AP) - The U.S. Department of Agriculture said Tuesday it had ended its investigation of a dog's death at the Cleveland Clinic and issued a warning to the hospital.
The USDA decided a warning was sufficient because the clinic reported itself, cooperated with an inspector and has a history of compliance with the Animal Welfare Act, USDA spokesman Darby Holladay said.
A doctor induced an aneurysm in the dog Jan. 10 to demonstrate a medical device to a group of salespeople. The mixed-breed dog was anesthetized during the demonstration and had to be euthanized afterward because of the damage caused by the aneurysm.
