The owners of a dog sled company in Canmore say they're getting death threats after a gruesome story out of Whistler, BC earlier this week.
Outdoor Adventures Whistler is being investigated after as many as 100 sled dogs were slaughtered last year.
Dana Bittner of Howling Dog Tours Limited in Canmore says it's been a tough week.
She says she's received threatening emails and phone calls, even death threats since news broke Monday of the massive cull of dogs.
Bittner says she loves her dogs and looks after them, and she's worried how the Whistler incident will affect the dog sledding industry.
RCMP confirm they are investigating the threats, but say it's a difficult investigation because they don't know where the threats came from.
Mounties say it's possible no one will ever face charges.
Bittner just hopes the threats will stop so she can focus on her animals and her business.
