i presume she wasn't chipped, they classified her as stray. i do want to believe that she was in distress when they found her, because the vets should have a serious reason to make such decision... if she was really suffering and in pain, and seemed to be homeless, that may explain the decision...
i feel extremely sorry for the owners, but partially it is their fault that their dog didn't have any form of identification.
