Investigation into cruelty in Watauga

What we know:

Watauga officials said that they began to investigate the cruelty of animals on March 1 after receiving a telephone about an adult, which was injured by a dog at home on a geyser.

While leading by the police, they discovered 47 Rottweilers, as well as 2 American Staffordshire Terrier, mixed breed and one cat in the residence. Many animals were sick or needed medical help.

Officials said that they live in “dangerously unhygienic conditions.”

Disturbing photos taken by the Humane Society of North Texas showed the kennels covered with urine and faeces and at least one skinny rottweiler.

Several animal shelters, including SPCA in Texas, Humane Society of North Texas, Irving Animal Services, Dallas Animal Services and Fort Worth Animal Care & Control, helped remove animals from home.

What next:

The Police Department in Watauga is actively examining the case and penalty allegations are possible.

Rottie installments

What we know:

Watauga officials confirmed that the property was associated with saving Rottie.

It seems that the website of the organization and accounts on social media has been deleted. However, there is a profile on the website giving day at North Texas, which mentions it as an organization non -Profit 501C3, which focuses on saving critically wounded or critically sick Rottweilers.

What we don’t know:

Officials did not publish the names of anyone involved, because the investigation is still underway.

Adopt or support the Rottweiler

What can you do:

Fort Worth Animal Care said that although it would be happy to save dogs from a bad situation, having so many dogs of large colors expanded the ability to shelter.

He asks the Fort Worth community for help in overpopulating, adopting or agreeing to support the dog.

“Although this situation was unexpected, we believe that the Fort Worth community can rise again to this occasion. These dogs have already passed a lot, and we can help them with your help they deserve, “said FWACC.
