Got a dead dog call. Sounded like your typical idiot let their dog die call. She had to leave but was okay with me coming in and getting it while she was away. Got the CC and ran it ahead of time and all was cool.
Arrive and walk into the back yard. Not just the one dead rottie and bucket of maggots but over there in plain sight is another dead dog down to bones and fur still chained and over there beside the rottie is a pet carrier with soup and bones of another dog. Disgusted I back out and make the call to Animal Control.
I'm the very last to do something like that because in my book a dog is nothing more or less than private property and it ain't nobody's business but I just couldn't walk away on abuse.

Good for you David,

Would have had a hard time not doin worse, makes you wonder how folks like that treat each other or raise their kids!

Very sad...

You did the right thing . Have to wonder what leads people from getting a puppy to neglecting them like this .Theres no excuse for it but like a sexually abused child growing up to be a sexual predator I have to wonder why it turned out like this.

I'm confused...

You mean the lady who owned the dead dogs called you to remove them?

Yes, come to find out she was already known to animal control with five citations I'm the last year. I guess she wanted me to clean up her mess.

So David I hope you STILL charged her.

Why yes I did, Robb.

What happened? Did you remove fido/s? Probably not even a ticket.

I'd bury them on site out of decency for the dogs. But only after I saw her being carried away in hand cuffs.

To me, dogs are more than property. My mutts are family.

Regardless. I don't hold with abuse of any kind. Even the animals I trap or hunt. When it's time to put them down I do it quick and as painless as possible.

I can not for the life of me figure how any body could be so cold as to just watch a dog die from neglect.

I agree you should've called the law on something like that....

What Muddawg said; our dogs are family and one is an employee.
