Maine apparently loves dogs as much as lobsters because the state’s governor issued a pardon for a dog that was sentenced to death.
The dog — a Husky named Dakota — will live after Gov. Paul LePage reportedly issued a full pardon to the pooch that was set to be euthanized for killing a small dog. The pooch had also shown violent behavior toward other dogs, according to Bangor Daily News.
Dakota had been sent to a shelter and later adopted … with the family having no idea he had been sentenced to death. Dakota reportedly showed no aggression while in the shelter.
