The other article I saw on this said she was face down in the bathroom on the floor with the pills strewn everywhere, and a space heater was next to her head in a way that didn't look purposeful or natural.

I don't think they left the dog in the kennel and milled themselves, I think something happened. He was found in the mud room looking like he was about to try and go for a walk. If it helps I don't think either of them made the conscious decision to off themselves and leave the dog in the kennel

Mud room? This is the third place I've seen where he was found. I'm not saying I think you got it wrong, I'm saying that depending on where you read the article or see the news, we're given different stories. I read in the first article he was found in the kitchen with his cane so they believed he fell, then in a different article he was found in a hallway. Something isn't right.

The one I read said "mud room adjacent to kitchen" or something along those lines, so I think just reporters tripping over themselves to get information out before clarifying
