Ya it scared my friend so bad that she moved out. Her dog spent like a good few weeks in the vet

. She even said she tried to push the stop/emergency button multiple times and it didn't work-not sure if its malfunction or it just doesn't work that way. And the elevator in the building is the kind that is programmed to go up all the way to your floor after you swap with your key fob and won't stop at any other floors and she was alone in the elevator so it went all the way up to the 49th floor where her floor is before she could come down to get her dog that was injured on the ground floor. Another thing is the gap between the elevator and the floor. I am always afraid dogs might accidentaly get their leg/paw stuck in it and the elevator will close on you after its open for some amount of time. I carry mine all the time now when we are going in and out of the elevator. Can't wait to move out of the condo into a house.
